Re: NetworkManager + WEP + static IP--no worky? (how to get 'Edit Connections' working?)

2008-07-14 Thread f . welland
This seemed to help!

Now after I do -- "Connect to New Wireless Network"   and enter in SSID and
WEP stuff and NM fails to connect because of now DHCP

I get a small 'arrow' to right of SSID list when you L-click on network
manager...  The resulting pop-up menu has the connection(s) that I manually
entered.   I can select those, and NM seems
to obey the config I saved.

I had to attempt to connect once to the target SSID - before the SSID would
appear (and the little arrow)  in my NM-applet list. I suspect this is
because my target network has a hidden SSID
-- it would be cool if connections are available -- perhaps under the
"Create New..." option

After connecting and reconnecting & nm-applet considering things OK -- i got
bars and a connect confirmation  -- I had no significant network
connectivity (i.e. couldn't browse internet etc) .

catting /etc/resolv.conf and reviewing settings with
ifconfig/iwconfig/route  all my settings seemed OK.

After some random tinkering and connecting and reconnecting -- I finally got
gmail to load and a few other pagesbut ...things are very
patchy...Internet connectivity fades in and out

Still trouble shooting thiscould be not related to NM(however I had
scripted connecting to this network via a ksh script (after turning off NM)
under Fedora 8 -- and it generally worked well)


...any further help would be great


(after a reboot...and a few reconnectsand some idle period in
betweennow my connection seems much better  so things seemed to be
working OK!).

When will NM 0.7 be released ?

2008-07-14 Thread Mildred
Hi,

Why isn't NetworkManager 0.7 not released already ?
When will it be ready ?

If I ask this it's because I'm using ArchLinux that doesn't want to
package NetworkManager 0.7 until it is released. And compiling it by
myself reveals more difficult than I have imagined.

Thanks

Mildred
