            Bug ID: 433951
           Summary: plasma systemmonitor network device sensors for wifi
                    devices should actually show the device and not the
                    network

example widget configured to show wifi stats (connected to eduroam)

When configuring the plasma systemmonitor to display network device statistics,
the list of devices is actually a list of connected networks (using
Networkmanager). 

E.g., connected to eduroam over the device wlp4s0, the device listed as sensor
is eduroam. 

This has several sideeffects / drawbacks, such as: 
1. When connected to no network, no device is shown in the sensors selection.
Thus is is impossible to configure the systemmonitor as long you are
disconnected. 
2. the network name info is useless (e.g., "eduroma network name: eduroam", see
attachment)
