Same problem here. It exists at least since 7.10. I have configured a manual WiFi of a WPA2-only network. Works like a charm. Until I reboot. Then nm-applet "forgot" that the key was WPA2 and contains settings for WPA. Of course, it cannot connect to the router with those.
Select manual configuration. Type password. Fix settings. Peace until next reboot. Note that the fix described in the first email of this bug does _not_ work: gconf-editor does not have an entry system > networking. -- [Gutsy] Unable to connect to Access Point if encryption method (WEP/WAP/WAP2) of the AP is changed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/140422 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
