Title:
[RTL8187SE] Network manager prevents all wifi connections
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Binary package hint: network-manager-gnome
In Ubuntu 10.10 if I have network-manager-gnome installed I can not
make wi fi connections. Network manager is incapable of making a wifi
connection, it reports connected but no data is delivered ie web pages
do not load etc. I have seen similar issues in earlier versions of
Ubuntu. WICD works fine on same machine.
Some extra information which might be of use is
WICD works fine but only if Network Manager is uninstalled. Even if Network
manager is not running (ie from start up WICD running and have not run network
manager, then WICD cannot connect to internet. Uninstall Network Manager and
WICD immediately starts working, even without a system restart, though I did
restart WICD. Ie Network Manager actively blocks the ability to make a wifi
connection.
BTW this is very reproducible. I also saw similar problems in 9.04,
9.10 and 10.04 LTS but did not know how to file a bug. However network
manager appears to be recently working on 10.04 LTS since i
reinstalled Network Manager to test it last week and in 10.04 it
works, but not 10.10. indeed until last week when I re-installed it on
10.04 i have never previously seen network Manager make a successful
wi fi connection and have always had to remove network manager and
install WICD. This is a serious problem since new users would simply
give up when faced with a non-functioning Network Manager, which has
been my 100% experience on fresh installs.
I am sure you will ask for some extra outputs, please tell me what to
type in the terminal and I will provide the information
