Convert the connection to a system connection, available to all users.
In NetworkManager I clicked on edit connection and then on the diskette symbol in the password field (in the tab wifi-security). Selected "save password and make available to all users (not encrypted)". Clicked "ok".
Now the password is shown in cleartext in the appropriate file in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ :
[wifi-security] auth-alg=open key-mgmt=wpa-psk psk=ThePassword
:-DD
The system must them make the wifi password accessible on boot, before login, so it should then be stored in the clear. Then look in the NM files again.
It should only ask for your root password. If it asks as well for the wifi password, abort.
When doing the change above (as user) I was not asked for any password.
Ah, maybe it asks when trying to modify again the connection. Of course, now that you have the password, you can go back to "user connection" if you prefer. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
