Hi, nm-applet is a tool (GUI in the system tray bar) to show devices, which profiles are currently active, and to activate/deactivate profiles on devices. Consequently, you don't see profiles that have no suitable device at the moment. Use nm-connection-editor for that, which only focuses on creating/modifing/deleting profiles. In nm-applet, you can also right click and select "Edit Connections...", which spawns nm-connection-editor -- though, I think right-click does not work if nm-applet uses libappindicator. Regardless of that, you can always start nm-connection-editor manually, the effect is the same. Does that work? best, Thomas
