** Changed in: network-manager (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed ** Description changed:
Binary package hint: network-manager Every day when I turn on my laptop, network-manager attempts to connect to a wap that doesn't work. I don't know much about why it doesn't work, - but nobody I know can connect to it. While it tries to connect, I get - one green dot in the tray icon with the animation. After a solid minute - or so it will say that it failed to connect. If during that minute, I - click the icon, and select a working network, it will not connect. + but nobody I know can connect to it. While it tries to connect, I get no + green dots in the tray icon but the animation does display. It stays + like that seemingly forever. Also if I click the icon, and select a + working network, it will not connect. If on the other hand, I first select 'create new wireless network', then type a name for it and click ok, I can then select a working wap and connect to it almost instantaneously. I am a novice user so if I can give any more information please let me know. For now, here is my ifconfig: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:18:F3:CA:A3:83 UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b) Interrupt:17 Base address:0xa000 eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:18:DE:28:86:03 inet addr:129.8.224.56 Bcast:129.8.227.255 Mask:255.255.252.0 inet6 addr: fe80::218:deff:fe28:8603/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:85995 errors:3 dropped:1372 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:1534 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:7882938 (7.5 MiB) TX bytes:205661 (200.8 KiB) Interrupt:16 Base address:0xe000 Memory:fdeff000-fdefffff lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:5 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:5 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:364 (364.0 b) TX bytes:364 (364.0 b) Here is my /etc/network/interfaces: auto lo iface lo inet loopback iface eth1 inet dhcp auto eth1 iface eth0 inet dhcp auto eth0 -- network manager hangs after trying to connect to a non-working wap https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/112225 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
