Opening network settings causes switchboard to crash

[lfuelling]

What Happened

When clicking the "Network" button the settings application closes. When running io.elementary.switchboard in a terminal, the following error message appears at crash time:

(io.elementary.switchboard:34256): Gtk-CRITICAL **: 20:21:32.157: gtk_widget_realize: assertion 'widget->priv->anchored || GTK_IS_INVISIBLE (widget)' failed
**
Gtk:ERROR:../../../../gtk/gtkwidget.c:12412:gtk_widget_real_map: assertion failed: (_gtk_widget_get_realized (widget))
Bail out! Gtk:ERROR:../../../../gtk/gtkwidget.c:12412:gtk_widget_real_map: assertion failed: (_gtk_widget_get_realized (widget))

Expected Behavior

The network settings should open.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install elementary 6.0
2. Connecto to a WPA2 WiFi
3. Try to open the network settings

I assume that the backtrace requested by @marbetschar in elementary/mail is also needed here:

I don't know if it's relevant but I have a network named W҉̶͞͝i͟͝F̸̴̡̧͠i͞͏͏, but that's not the one I'm connected to and it's shown just fine in the statur bar widget:

[otuk]

I can state that this is the ONLY problem I observed since 2days ago upgrading to 6.0. Everything else works, but network popup window crashes. if any tracing info is needed please tell me what you would like to see. I will supply.

[BBarbuz]

I installed eOS 6 yesterday and I also have exactly the same issue. Did you find the solution @lfuelling ?

[lfuelling]

@BBarbuz no, sorry, I switched to Manjaro after finding a few additional issues.

[vividhaditya]

I am also facing the same issue. The issue started particularly on Odin, after I added a Mobile Broadband connection, which does not get activated. Deleting the Mobile Broadband from Advanced Network Settings and restarting the system does seem to solve the problem, but adding the Mobile Broadband connection again creates the problem and crashes the Network Settings window as soon as it is opened from the Wingpanel or from the System Settings. Since I am working remotely, where I do not have other internet options other than the mobile broadband using a SIM inside my Thinkpad X1 Carbon, it is has become a serious issue.
