Hello,
I’m experiencing an issue with Wi-Fi connectivity on my Lubuntu system. When attempting to connect to a Wi-Fi network that requires a password, I receive the following message:
Code:
nm-applet-Message: No keyring secrets found for <network-name>/802-11-wireless-security; asking user.
Here are some additional details about my system and the issue:

What I’ve Tried:
- Reinstalled Network Manager and network-manager-gnome.
- Verified the network adapter is recognized and drivers are installed.
Issue: When trying to connect to a Wi-Fi network with a password, Network Manager prompts for keyring secrets but does not store or use them properly, resulting in connection failures.
