Adding the nm-applet task because we'll be adding code in both NM and nm-applet to workaround this.
FWIW; it's indeed been broken for a while: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.wireless.general/87543/focus=87554 ** Also affects: network-manager-applet (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: network-manager-applet (Ubuntu) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: network-manager-applet (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: network-manager-applet (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre (mathieu-tl) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/905748 Title: Create WPA2 adhoc is Open, not encrypted Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “network-manager-applet” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: When I create a new network with networkmanager, select wpa2 personal and enter a password, the network that gets created is actually Open. In the connection information on Ubuntu, the network ist shown as WPA2 secured, but I can connect with other devices without entering any key. The network is discovered on windows and on Android (CM7) as OPEN! Using ubuntu 11.10, network-manager 0.9.1.90-0ubuntu5.1 I couldn't find any reference to this behaviour on the net or in the bug tracker. bug 322902 seems similar Note: With standard Android, it's not possible to connect to an adhoc wifi. With cyanogenmod or other mods it's possible.
