I restarted the nm-applet in a term and have been watching for any problems.
This morning I opened the term to see pages of messages like this -
** (nm-applet:6259): WARNING **: _nm_object_get_property: Error getting
'RsnFlags' for /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/AccessPoint/1355: (19) Method
"Get" with signature "ss" on interface "org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties"
doesn't exist

The messages go on like this with only the number at the end of the
.../AccessPoint/ path changing

under /usr/share/dbus-l/interfaces/ there are a number of org.freedesktop
paths, but none for NetworkManager, but there is a NetworkManager.policy in
polkit/actions.

Anyone have any insight as to how to correct this error?

Thanks, as always, for the input.

Jack
