Use NM to disambiguate device names #392

Open danirabbit opened 10 months ago

danirabbit commented 10 months ago

What Happened?

Currently we do our own device name disambiguation which means we either have a name like "Wired" or the name of the device itself with no helpful in betweens like "USB ethernet"

Steps to Reproduce

Have two or more of the same kinds of devices like a PCI and USB ethernet device. See that in the sidebar you have the device name

Expected Behavior

We should use NM to disambiguate names so we get more helpful descriptions like we have in the network indicator
