** Description changed: Binary package hint: knetworkmanager On Kubuntu 6.10 with Buffalo WLI-CB-G54A card using Ndiswrapper. Kubuntu comes up (with a long delay where I suspect it is attempting to connect to the wireless network) and the wireless card's lights are lit but there is no network connection. I tried this with a test wireless network with no encryption and I connect fine first time - so something to do with WEP. 1) With bare bones /etc/network/interfaces file, I attempt to connect to my wireless n/w using KNetworkManager with the correct WEP key specified. It fails to connect and reprompts for my WEP key ... 2) If, whilst it is doing this I enter "sudo iwlist wlan0 enc" to check my WEP key, I see a strange key of A7D5-CFE7-B0B7-EB11-E518-17FE-B4 3) SO, while KNetworkManager was trying to connect I entered "sudo iwconfig wlan0 key s:<my wep key>" and I connected fine. This works repeatable for me. Please let me know what extra info I can supply ... I'd like to be able to connect to the network without having to do the above every time. + + Update 4th April: + - strange key is not always the same - today it was 6A80-91FF-2462-08C2-2639-7459-52 + - having entered the correct key through "sudo iwconfig ..." and successfully connected, "sudo iwlist wlan0 enc" shows my correct WEP key
