Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner. There have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time you reported the bug and your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates.
I'm going to close this bug report as their is nothing else we can do with this old report in a now unsupported version of Ubuntu. If you still have this issue on Ubuntu 14.04 or higher, please do reopen or report a new bug. ** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1240425 Title: WPA network connection always triggers password confirmation Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Every time I boot or resume my machine at the office, where there is a WPA network, I am prompted for the authentication details and forced to connect manually. The username and password are automatically filled in from the last successful attempt, and clicking 'connect' is successful. However, this reveals an underlying bug, probably to do with the consistent failure of the first connection attempt owing to timeouts being hit (extra startup time when first initialised?) This may have the same underlying cause as https://bugs.launchpad.net/wicd/+bug/1084380 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1084364 that wpa_supplicant takes a while to connect, and network-manager doesn't appreciate that it needs more time under certain circumstances, like the first connection attempt. Fixing this will make ubuntu MUCH BETTER for many many people I suspect, where they are permanently struggling with no network and a popup window where no such failure was necessary - e.g. the network and adapter are all fine.
