Re: [orca-list] getting to wireless networks

[VojtÄch PolÃÅek <krecoun gmail com>]

Hello,
the icon should be somewhere on the gnome panel. You can cycle between 
panels and  desktop using ctrl-alt-tab.
But I personally don't like gnome network manager and removed it. I 
installed wicd. You have to install wicd -  it is a deamon and then 
wicd-gtk, that's the gtk interface. It is much better network manager in 
my opinion.
You have similar options like in windows and can set multiple profiles 
for ethernet connections, etc.
