Description Christoph Junghans 2014-01-09 05:30:00 UTC
Many laptops have a special wifi button, which sends XF86WLAN, but NetworkManager doesn't react to that.
Comment 1 André Klapper 2020-11-12 14:29:20 UTC
bugzilla.gnome.org is being shut down in favor of a GitLab instance. 
We are closing all old bug reports and feature requests in GNOME Bugzilla which have not seen updates for a long time.

If you still use NetworkManager and if you still see this bug / want this feature in a recent and supported version of NetworkManager, then please feel free to report it at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/issues/

Thank you for creating this report and we are sorry it could not be implemented (workforce and time is unfortunately limited).
