GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 677910
[usability]: only network name, not connection name shown in Network Settings

Which is rather confusing if you want to create two connection within one network. I.e. one DHCP and one with static IP.
The linux is Fedora 17, updated. I can't find the versions when I type $ nm-applet --version and when I type $ gnome --version it doesn't return any sensible information.
