Thanks for your reply! Your explanation kinda makes sense cause these networks are on the same physical device. It's a Ubiquiti UAP-AC-PRO. Looks like their BSSIDs are only different by a single bit, as your describing. Except, it's the first bit which is different and all others are the same like below;

BSSIDs of the networks
02:[etc] - trusted
0A:[etc] - untrusted
06:[etc] - management

Looks like the post-fix networks have the same BSSID of their non-post-fixed counterparts. Makes sense. I tried the journalctl command. When I am on the "trusted" network without post-fix and I click the "untrusted" it seems to actually connect to "untrusted 1" according to the log output. And, vice versa for connecting to "trusted" from "untrusted 1".

 

I don't have any particular problem here. I'm merely curious and can't find simple answers online. I haven't tried asking an AI, but I just feel strangely inclined to not try asking AI...

My screenshot depicts several networks in the Wifi section of gnome settings on Ubuntu 26.04LTS. The networks in question are ones labeled like management, untrusted, trusted. Some having a 1 at the end of their name/SSID (Same thing?). These networks are "hidden", not broadcasting their SSID. To my knowledge, the only networks which I've created on my infrastructure are the ones which do not have a 1 at the end of their name. After I initially connected to these hidden networks, the networks/configurations with a 1 at the end of their name/ssid/whatever just spontaneously appeared in the Wifi settings. This doesn't happen on any other devices or operating systems. So the question is of course, why does this happen?

Just now, I wanted to add that as an edit of my post instead of adding it as a comment, but this website kept giving me a error message stating "language not supported". Then I changed the language from "select language" to "undetermined", but the dropdown selector kept instantly resetting itself!

Edit: This also seams to have fixed a problem where the settings under the section labeled "ubuntu desktop", in the settings app, wasn't displaying.

 

I just upgraded to 26.04 and had to spend some time researching and messing around before I found out a specific package was missing which solved my problems. That package is gnome-shell-ubuntu-extensions!

So yea, after installing that package (with apt) and logging out and back in again, I opened the gnome extensions manager app/thing, and saw desktop icons NG, Ubuntu Appindicators, Tiling Assistant & Dock extensions are all present.

Just thought I'd make this post so that in the off chance someone has the same issue and looks for the solution on lemmy, they can see this and know the solution?
