Package: network-manager
Version: 0.6.2-3
Severity: normal

Hi,

network-manager is supposed to be wonderful to manage various networks but I 
can't
get it to work correctly. I have a Thinkpad T43 with an ipw2200 driver (1.1.2 
driver
on 2.6.17-rc6). I need to connect to either a WPA personal wireless network at 
home
(CCMP pairwise and group) or a WEP encrypted at work (104bits hex key with 
shared key
authentication).

When I choose to connect to my WPA network in network-manager, it does not seem 
to
set the WPA key in my interface (at least, that's why iwconfig says). Most of 
the time,
I end up having to set the key with iwconfig before network-manager becomes 
happy. The
connection is very stable then.

On the WEP network, network-manager sets the key correctly but does not set it 
to
"restricted" (according to iwconfig). The key remains in "open" authentication.
The log of my last attempt to connect to this WEP network is attached below.

Sometime it works, but most of the time, it does not and I have to help 
network-manager
or reboot/reset the driver multiple times before getting connected to my 
wireless
network.

Note that network scanning works fine. Both networks are always proposed by 
network-manager
when they are nearby. Storing the key in gnome-keyring also seems to work fine.

Also note that I was using wpa_supplicant without network-manager before, and 
it was
working much better. But, given the features of network-manager, I'd rather not 
go
back to wpa_supplicant-only.
I checked that no additional wpa_supplicant was running in the background and 
disturbing
network-manager.

Thanks,
Brice Goglin
