answering my own question.
I follow the MAGEIA QA procedure at
https://wiki.mageia.org/en/QA_procedure:Knetworkmanager
and now it automagically reconnect after a reboot or a suspend/resume :-)
only drawback; i have to enter a passwd for kwallet :-(
so two questions:
- is there a way to store the password locally?
- this is a default mga3a2 X86_64 installation so i hope for final mga3 
networkmanager
will be the default program?
