I'm having this same issue, can exit fine from the main window, but not from the add window, was there a fix for this? Using Gotham on XBMCbuntu
RE: [RELEASE]Network-Manager front-end for XBMCbuntu - bout100 - 2014-09-01
Any ideas on this? Still can't find a fix, a restart is required after connecting to a network.

Put this in addconnection.py under #cancel dialog.
def closeDialog(self):
self.close()

hi i am new to this.
i installed the last version of raspmc today. ran into the same problems as previous users here.
the network manager was not compatible so i could not install it. i managed to install it from
the zip file posted in here.
I entered all my info correctly and when its scans for my wlan it finds it but when I click on Status
it always says disconnected. I use WPA-PSK / WPA2-PSK. Set to "Auto" in router.
SSID is correctly, too. i got the Edimax EW-7811Un WLAN Adapter.
The Adapter flashes with a blue light but it won't connect to router which works
flawlessly with my cell.
I use the default skin setup in raspbmc. No changes made.
please help

I installed your repository script into Kodi but I do not see network manager anywhere. Can you please tell me where I can find it?

Hi,
this link is working with Helix.
Helix Kodi 14.2 Network Manager Wifi
Install from the zip file:
http://www.xilka.com/xilka/source/script.linux.nm1-1.0.3.zip
After connected with Access Point, Cancel doesn't work so Power Off manually and Power On and it will be connected!

Is this project still alive? I would like to control NetworkManager from Kodi, but I cannot install this.
RE: [RELEASE]Network-Manager front-end for XBMCbuntu - vikjon0 - 2016-04-14
No, it is not maintained any more. No interests from developers. Should be easy to get it to work again though. Assuming the ubuntu network-manager has not changed too much.
RE: [RELEASE]Network-Manager front-end for XBMCbuntu - ezzetabi - 2016-04-14
I see, but how people connect their kodi to wpa wireless then?
RE: [RELEASE]Network-Manager front-end for XBMCbuntu - vikjon0 - 2016-04-14
Assuming you are on ubuntu, by loging out of kodi and into the desktop.
Openelec have their on wifi manager.
RE: [RELEASE]Network-Manager front-end for XBMCbuntu - ezzetabi - 2016-04-15
Well, leaving kodi is always a solution I guess... But the main problem in my scenario is the lack of a keyboard, even if it's not as good as a real one the Kodi virtual keyboard is enough for passwords. I will check this Openelec distribution.
However, how is difficult to do a plugin for kodi? I have no experience in GUIs, but I programmed a lot in C++ and a bit in Python...
RE: [RELEASE]Network-Manager front-end for XBMCbuntu - vikjon0 - 2016-04-15
It was quite tricky to make the backend working. The dbus / network manager object model was a bit hard to understand.
The resulting stand-alone script is here
https://github.com/vikjon0/qfpynm
(the same script is used in the add-on)
EDIT: The script in the add-on was newer. I updated by copy/paste in the github edit function. If it was corrupted look for the script in the add-on instead.
That was also the fun part. I don't like to spend time on the GUI stuff.
To make a add-on in python is easy but you have to learn the GUI model. Not sure how much it has changed since this was working.
It never worked to 100% in other skins since I didn't manage to root out all dependencies to confluence. (introduced by the add-on I copied as a base)
If you dont want to spend time on the GUI you can use the above script to do the wifi from ssh.
You can also install wicd
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/wicd
which has a command line interface wicd-curses
However, it is not compatible with network-manager.
So if you like python and don't want to learn kodi gui then play around with my script and skip the add-on.
