[ Solved ] KDE no network applet and no network connection

I just installed entire KDE

https://packages.debian.org/jessie/all/kde-full/download

I have no network. I logged into LXDE and opened synaptic package manager and installed many plasma software "plasma..." and I now have internet access in KDE

I got the network problem again and I solved it using info on this website

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WICD

For KDE (Kubuntu)
Open up a Terminal and execute the following commands:

First, we download the latest NetworkManager, in case we need to reinstall if WICD doesn't works:

sudo apt-get install -d --reinstall network-manager plasma-widget-networkmanagement

Then we install WICD:
sudo apt-get install wicd-kde

And only then do we uninstall NetworkManager:

sudo apt-get remove --purge plasma-widget-networkmanagement network-manager

There is plasma-nm widget.
Its enabled as default in 4.0 rc kde iso.
