In my last comment I said "I prefer not to use knetworkmanager" but I meant to say "I prefer not to use kwalletmanager". When I use kwalletmanager it asks for a master password each time and I prefer not to be bothered with a master password or otherwise. Sorry for the confusion. -- Kubuntu Ja

I think you are suffering from the kwallet-disabled bug mentioned above. Try to install and enable your Kwalletmanager (kwalletd). The plasma- widget-networkmanager should then use the kwallet as a password storage. -- Kubuntu Jaunty: Cannot Connect To Wireless Network with WEP shared key https:/

Jonathan Riddell's solution worked! I added his line to my repositories, updated my plasma-widget-network- manager... And now I'm connected! :D Nevertheless, I'd like to point two things: 1º. I had to type my ascii key... as an hex key. That was boring. 2º. I first typed it wrongly, and I wasn't

plasma-widget-network-manager from kubuntu-experimental behaves a LOT better.

apo's fix (comment 21) works for me from the LiveCD (actually LiveUSB) kubuntu final Jaunty release. If I start kwalletd first, then select the network and enter the credentials I am able to connect. I did have to enter the password twice (once on the "long" dialog and once on the "short" dialog)

Ok, most of the people here seem to be complaining about WEP, not WPA. I actually do have a WPA2 gateway that I can't connect to. The plasmoid displays no reaction when I try to click on my gateway. Is there a resolution planned for this? Or will I have to use lame work- arounds until the Octob

I can also confirm the behaviour that Julien posted: it is still an issue even after release. Additionally, it seems that an extra network connection appears on the list of networks each time you do this, and it is completely impossible to use an existing listed connection.
