Package: network-manager Version: 1.22.10-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I have tried to use a wifi dongle in my laptop. Networks were detected, but connection fails with these messages in syslog kernel: wlx0022b0e3c6b6: aborting authentication with 70:5a:9e:3a:30:18 by local choice (Reason: 3=DEAUTH_LEAVING) wpa_supplicant[671]: wlx0022b0e3c6b6: CTRL-EVENT-SSID-TEMP-DISABLED id=0 ssid="local_wifi" auth_failures=2 duration=20 reason=CONN_FAILED NetworkManager[657]: <info> [1584653959.9157] device (wlx0022b0e3c6b6): supplicant interface state: authenticating -> disconnected Looking at https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/386925/aborting-authentication-by-local-choice-reason-3-deauth-leaving-when-trying this problem seems to be attributed to network manager having problems with long (e.g, wlx0022b0e3c6b6) wifi names (wicd seems not affected). A workaround is suggested in that page, adding ad-hoc udev rules. e.g. /etc/udev/rules.d/70_rename-wlan.rules: SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", KERNEL=="wlan*", NAME="wlan0" I have tested this and is working. Not sure if problem is indeed with network-manager, but seems likely. I think I even read somewhere that downgrading network-manager helped, but did not keep track of the url and also I did not try the downgrade.
