Bug Description
When a guest is using its guest session and wants to join a new Wifi network, the administrative rights GUI is shown and the guest just cancel.
this is because (I guess) by default a new network should be available to all users and thus stored in a way that needs admin rights.
A workaround : add manually the Wifi network and uncheck the "available to all users"
note : adding the OEM project because It was a blocking issue for testing an Asus Ubuntu computer presented in a shop.
| summary: |
