Troubles with wi fi adapter

XFCE 4.10 v
Manjaro 0.8.9

Hi, I just installed XFCE but I can't find an easy way to control de wi fi adapter. I added the wavelan element to the panel, but it says 'No such WaveLan device'. Thanks to a user in the IRC chat of Manjaro I could connect to my wireless connection through the console, but I find this a littler weird in order to check the connections available and the properties of the adapter.
Can anyone help me with that?

edit. I fix the version of Manjaro. I was confused.

Re: Troubles with wi fi adapter

The Wavelan plugin is a simple tool to view basic info about your wireless connection. To change the plugin to display info about your wireless adapter, right-click on the plugin, choose Properites and change the interface to your wireless interface.

If you're looking for a network manager to manage your network connections (as you say to "check the connections available and the properties of the adapter"), have a look at NetworkManager.
