OK I will take a look at them.
I want to probably use netcfg instead on network manager as I am using systemd. So it was be handy to have a simple panel app for connecting to wireless networks..
But please remember that managing networks in real-time with netcfg requires root. Netcfg is supposed to work autonomously, not controlled via a panel plugin. If you want to use such thing, I think you'll be better off with NM/wicd as they use dbus for communications between user frontends and the main daemon.

Hey guys, I just removed gnome as it was quite heavy for my laptop and installed xfce. I remember there was a page on the wiki with some recommendations about WiFi management, system monitor etv. But I can't seem to find it. Anyone got some proposals? Thanks
Did you install (parts of) the group xfce4-goodies? There's a great selection of plugins for the panel that should cover most of your needs. For wifi management you can just use nm-applet, you might need to add it to the startup applications.
