I think if you're not seeing it there must be something else amiss. When you click the standard 'Networks' popup in the system tray, underneath the word 'Networks' at the top of the popup I have a check box with a wifi symbol next to it. Next to that there's another one for airplane mode, and then a Hotspot button. All on Leap 15.4.
Otherwise, in the list of wifi connections in System Settings, if you click on one, then look under the 'Wi-Fi' tab on the right pane, you don't by any chance have the Visibility check box ticked, making it a hidden network? Obviously you wouldn't have done that deliberately but maybe the config has somehow become corrupted.
I think we may be heading in the wrong direction with Network Manager. As I mentioned in another note, the WiFi NIC doesn't even show up with ifconfig or ip commands, though it does if I boot a rescue system.
That really reads like a missing driver; can you verify what driver is in use for the card when you boot a rescue system and ensure the non-rescue system has the same driver available and loaded? I was working w/ a new RTL8852au adapter last night and was sad to see NOTHING displayed for it via `ip a` until I google searched a few things based off the model name and happened upon Larry's work for that driver. Now things are working as they should after a few commands 👍️ -- ~ Scott Bradnick |- Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) Developer |-- Tumbleweed: |--- Dell Precision 5540 [NVIDIA Quadro T1000] (x86_64) |--- O-DROID H2+ [UHD Graphics 600] (x86_64) |--- IceWhale ZimaBoard 832 [Intel HD Graphics 500] (x86_64) |--- 2x Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.2 (aarch64) |--- 1x Raspberry Pi 3 Model B Rev 1.2 (aarch64) |--- WinBook TW100 (x86_64) https://keys.openpgp.org/ :: DBC5AA9A2D2BAEBC
