I gave this a try and it worked. After turning on broadcast on my linksys wireless cable/dsl router I connect right away. I am using a D-LINK DWL-G650 cardbus card. I really do not like having my AP visible. Is there a known bug tracking the fix of this at either the driver or NM level? Does

I am having the same issue on two laptops. A T30 and a T41 Thinkpad. The T30 (mine) was upgraded using the network upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10. When using 8.04, Network Manager worked perfectly. No issues. The T41 was built using a clean install of 8.10. Both are up-to-date as far as update

One last detail. Both the T30 and T40 laptops are using D-Link DWL-G650 PCMCIA wireless cards. Both have been used with linux before. AS above the T30 used the same card with 8.04 + Network Manager without this password prompting issue. -- [intrepid] alpha 6 - WPA & WPA2 Personal won't authen

Alexander: Thank you for your quick feedback on this. A few questions: * Which intrepid packages should I download and install? All of them that I see in this link? * If I install these packages, will "Update Manager" update them when a future update comes out? * How long does it usually take

I was pointed to this issue from #273336. In a nutshell, my wireless does not work on close start-up or event after many attempts. I have only tried this using NetworkManager. The same issue is on two laptops. A T30 and a T41 Thinkpad. Both are using D-Link DWL-G650 PCMCIA wireless cards. [ 29

I received an email from another user. "JC" suggested using http://wicd.sourceforge.net/ vs network-manager. After looking at the docs it is pretty easy to install. There is a debian repo for Ubuntu. Simply add the repo and a keyfile. Then install. Network Manager gets removed and replaced w

If the deb packages already exist for 9.04, can they be used with 8.10? Are there any howto or docs that I can follow to build my own deb packages that I can use to manually update my 6u10 version to 6u12? I have seen some using fakeroot but they only build one deb file vs the 6+ that are released

>From what I understand the issue is more with the chipset and not with the driver.Best bet is what I did, Install wicd at http://wicd.net It is easy to install and it auto-updates like any other ubuntu package. I have been using it since 8.04 and am happy with it. The only lack is VPN support

One thought... Ubuntu should consider including wicd in the next release as an alternate to NetworkManager. There are a lot of cards affected by this issue and this would resolve most of them. -- [intrepid] alpha 6 - WPA & WPA2 Personal won't authenticate short passwords https://bugs.launchpad.n
