Bug Description

Hi,

After my ISP home router is being rebooted, my KUbuntu Trusty 14.04.5 LTS does neighter reconnect to my hidden wifi network automatically nor manually with the Plasma NM applet.

The ONLY workaround I have found so far is by typing the following command :

$ nmcli con up id MyWifi

knowing that "MyWifi" is my hidden wifi connection name in the applet (my "ESSID" is different)

Btw, I'm using kernel "4.4.0-64-generic" and "plasma-nm" version "0.9.3.3-0ubuntu1" :

$ lsb_release -sd
Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS
$ uname -r
4.4.0-64-generic
$ apt-cache policy plasma-nm
plasma-nm:
  Installed: 0.9.3.3-0ubuntu1
  Candidate: 0.9.3.3-0ubuntu1
  Version table:
 *** 0.9.3.3-0ubuntu1 0
        500 http://fr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/universe amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Can you please have a look and try and fix this bug ?
