We also need more information from wpa_supplicant when things fail, like getting notifications of assoc/auth timeouts so that we can do the intelligent thing here and *not* pop up the dialog when auth times out, but only pop up the dialog when we're sure it's actually a failure of the password/PSK. So basically we need both some wpa_supplicant work here and some NM work. But it's clearly behavior we need to fix.

Yeah, thats pretty annoying thing when you are in a city looking for a hotspot. Instead of popping up settings it should probably just show notification which would pop up settings page.

RE: Wireless - properties popup after a few failed retries
I think you didn't understand my question. For example, I've got my laptop connect to the wireless network, and then I have to stop my radius server for maintenance for 1h,when NetworkManager detects that the connection is dropped it tries to reconnect a few times and then fails as obvious. What I'm asking is if it's possible to instead of showing up the popup, make it keep trying to reconnect so that it when my radius server comes back up my laptop connects automatically to my wifi network. -Original Message- From: Maverick [mailto:maverick...@gmail.com] Sent: segunda-feira, 1 de Agosto de 2011 23:20 To: 'Dan Williams' Cc: 'networkmanager-list@gnome.org' Subject: RE: Wireless - properties popup after a few failed retries WPA2 Enterprise (PEAP + MSCHAPv2) -Original Message- From: Dan Williams [mailto:d...@redhat.com] Sent: segunda-feira, 1 de Agosto de 2011 22:58 To: Maverick Cc: networkmanager-list@gnome.org Subject: Re: Wireless - properties popup after a few failed retries On Mon, 2011-08-01 at 14:45 +0100, Maverick wrote: > Good afternoon, > > > > When i’m connect to a wireless network and for some reason the > connection is interrupted for a while NetworkManager tries to > reconnect a few times and then it shows up a popup with the connection > properties, after that the only way to reconnect is to press the OK > button on that popup. > > > > Is there any way to make it not show this popup in order to reconnect > automatically when the connection comes back again?

Wireless - properties popup after a few failed retries
Good afternoon, When i'm connect to a wireless network and for some reason the connection is interrupted for a while NetworkManager tries to reconnect a few times and then it shows up a popup with the connection properties, after that the only way to reconnect is to press the OK button on that popup. Is there any way to make it not show this popup in order to reconnect automatically when the connection comes back again? Best regards. ___ networkmanager-list mailing list networkmanager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
