** 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:
