Yes, network-manager is the applet I mentioned. When I select info, it shows DHCP (IIRC), but most other figures are 0.0.0.0 > > You may want to check the network settings > (System->Administration->Network), to make sure that it's set to auto > (=managed by NetworkManager). It is. I've enabled Roaming. Before this, I didn't see any configuration options on the network-manager applet. > I don't recall having to set up anything special with NetworkManager > and keyring-manager, it Just Worked for me after I typed in a master > password.

It's every time I select the wireless network. I've never been asked for a master password - I'm still using Feisty on this machine, planning to upgrade v. soon. I haven't really tried rebooting/logging in without changing at least one setting, and every time I've had to re-select the appropriate wireless network. > For the manual approach... check ifconfig wlan0, see if it's got an > IP.

When I connect to the wireless network and enter the WPA key, the NO_CARRIER disappears from the ifconfig output. route -n default gateway is correct, but on device eth0 instead of wlan0. Trying to ping the router gives host (or maybe network, not sure) unreachable.
