Connection to open or WPA secured wifi works withou any issues. Connection to
WPA2/PLEAP (without cert, just with username/password fails). Although wifi
layer get's is associated the client (network-manager) possibly due to bug
deauthenticate itself without establishing an IP connection.
Connect to network.
