Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager

Compared to Windows (where I am usually logged in to my WPA2 encrypted
WiFi network immediately), it takes ages for me to log in to my network.

When booting my uptodate Intrepid, I am asked to enter the password for
my network several times, because it does never connect. After, say,
four times, it says "disconnected" in the tray and I have to click on
the network-manager icon, select my network again, and do the same
procedure another time.

After a couple of times I am finally logged in, and once I am, I do
never drop out again.

In about one of ten times I am immediately logged in to the network.

Luckily, in contrast to older versions, my password is now at least
immediately entered. A security vulnerability is, though, that one can
easily read it, although only the encrypted version is displayed.

My network card is a Intel(R) Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN network card. I
am using an ASUS X55SV laptop.
