Description:
 Network manager for kde.

Allows you to configure different network profiles
using all encryptions wpa_supplicant provides
(wep, wpa, wpa2 etc) for wireless networks. 
Since version 0.4.5 kwlan can connect to
unencrypted networks if wpa_supplicant is not
available. 

Kwlan can also store profiles for wired networks.

Dialup networks can be edited and connected to as
well.

Systray icons show connection statistics per
interface (can be disabled).

Attention: Since 0.6.0, Kwlan uses kdesu to do
administrative tasks so you must be able to run
dhclient, ifconfig, wpa_supplicant (see help
file)!
New kubuntu binery fixes dependency problems.
