Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: network-manager
boule% lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu lucid (development branch)
Release: 10.04
boule%
WPA wireless N network(Linksys DIR-655 router, WPA) was working reliably under
Karmic Kubuntu using either knetworkmanager or nm-applet. Since upgrade to
Lucid, it is very difficult to connect using: knetworkmanager, and/or
nm-applet. (started trying the others because knetworkmanager was at around 10%
success rate.) nm-applet seems to work more often than the others, but it is
still only, perhaps 30% successful. I downloaded cnetworkmanager (python line
mode api to dbus/networkmanager) to better see what is going on, similar rate
of success to nm-applet
none of the tools seem to store the SSID password anymore, always have
to re-enter it manually.
What is the correct kde network manager applet: network-manager-kde
(kwifimanager) or the plasmoid?
Regardless of method, they see the SSID, and try to connect, but rarely
succeed.... just hang in ´connecting´ or ´activating´ and eventually
give up.
Often resorting to hard-wired connection.
