I just reinstalled ArchLinux on my Thinkpad. I am a bit puzzled that the `network-manager-applet` only supports WEP encryption for wifi networks.

I already installed `wpa_supplicant` and `wireless_tools` as [suggested elsewhere on the internet](https://evilshit.wordpress.com/2012/09/15/how-to-make-networkmanager-and-network-manager-applet-work-on-arch-linux-with-gnome3/).

I'm running ArchLinux with kernel 4.8.13-1-ARCH and the classic Mate Desktop environment in GTK-2 version.

How to enable WPA and WPA2 for the Network Manager Applet?
