This seems to be simply a problem with the broadcom wifi drivers in this case. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/888672 Title: NetworkManager can' t connect on WiFi if laptop is without power connection To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plasma-widget-networkmanagement/+bug/888672/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
