Looks like networkmanager fails to got some GUI agent to ask for auth info: org.kde.kwalletd5[1739]: Application ' "kded5" ' using kwallet without parent window! NetworkManager[842]: <warn> [1467479637.2483] device (wlp12s0): No agents were available for this request. NetworkManager[842]: <info> [1467479637.2484] device (wlp12s0): state change: need-auth -> failed (reason 'no-secrets') [60 120 7] NetworkManager[842]: <info> [1467479637.2486] manager: NetworkManager state is now DISCONNECTED

Glad to be of help. Would this condition be for all wifi adapters?

Might be caused by missing KDE wallet.
(In reply to Olav Vitters from comment #7) > Might be caused by missing KDE wallet. OK, good answer. This thing continuously asks for setting up the KDE Wallet ( user name and password ) and I dismiss all that. I have no use for it. So are you saying for some reason the KDE wallet and the WiFi need to work together. Seems strange.
Ran the test again but before setting up the Wifi I: Accounts Settings -> Account Details -> unchecked -> "Enable the KDE wallet subsystem" Then was able to successfully set up the WiFi connection and the laptop was able to surf the Internet. Do we want the KDE Wallet system to be enabled as a default? I don't think it's been that way. Seems a new person just trying to use our Live-DVD would have to know this in advance. Seems to me to be one step to far.
Wallet as well as keyring is where it stores the password. No idea if possible to use something else.
