Public bug reported:
I get a notification from the KDE applet every few seconds, telling me
about a connection being deactivated. The wifi network is way out of
range, so NetworkManager should not be trying to connect to it. (The log
even mentions "failed (reason 'SSID not found')".) This is happening so
often that it's very distracting.
Here is some of the output from NetworkManager:
