nm-applet does not allow me to choose a network
As you can see in the picture above, the list is inactive and I can't click on any of the entries present.
I have followed ArchLinux Wiki guide to install and configure ( if we can say so ) networkmanager, so, please, do not prioritize it 
Is there anything I can do about it ?
Thanks.

Re: nm-applet does not allow me to choose a network
Before you go into any settings, I'd try starting nm-applet again under root privileges. Any time that I'm not allowed to do something with it, it's usually cause nm-applet was started normally instead of under sudo.

Tried it several times.
