Re: Testing switching from Gnome 3 to KDE 5
Yeah, I was going to say, depends on what you are using to manage your network, which is a choice made at the distro (not desktop environment) level. On OpenSUSE, it defaults to NetworkManager on laptops and similar and to Wicked on workstations. The latter does not show (as far as I'm aware) an applet, as in principle the networking is mostly stable, as opposed to a laptop which hops from network to network.
I think also some of the complaints about KDE may not actually be KDE's fault but rather crappy packaging or integration with the distro. I would recommend OpenSUSE as a top-notch distro which brings not just a very polished KDE experience but also is super easy to manage both locally and remotely (YaST is a fantastic thing).
