It's in sytem settings, actually, or if you choose "Manage Connections..." from the 
systray icon's config menu.

NetworkManager (the underlying system) cannot have more than one client. A client is 
either GNOME's nm-applet, knetworkmanager, or possibly the kded module to interact 
from Plasma. Stop the one you're running and then start knetworkmanager.
