At the bottom of the screen resulting from click on "K menu, System
Settings, then Network Settings" there is a bottom called "Administrator
Mode".  Clicking on it will result in the system asking for your
password.  once you do that, you should have full control.  If that
still does not work, run kcontrol manually;  from a terminal window, run
kdesu kcontrol" or from "K Menu-->Run command" type kcontrol and press
enter. from there choose "Internet and Network-->Network Settings"

Ifall of that still fails, i would try configuring from the command
promp, but let's hope it does not come to that.
