On perhaps 30 new installs it has never failed me unless the wireless card was not supported or someones wireless AP security did not match. I did have one flaky system with an HP laptop which would work sometimes and not others. -- Dazed_75 a.k.a.

Apps: Ceni Wicd You have to dump all your network values except for /etc/resolv.conf and in Wicd's case just let it take over. I've run months with the later and an occasional thunderstorm will drop the power from the house, but as long as I have power in my laptop and can get a signal I'm good.

Re: Network Manager Keyring
Matthew, The short answer is that, AFAIK, you cannot do what you want. NetworkManager is tied into the Gnome Keyring support, and won't let you manage your WiFi PSK yourself. The keyring is in Gnome (or KDE if you're using that desktop), NetworkManager just uses it (pretty much everything in the desktop is moving to using the keyring, in an effort to work more like Windows). You can go into the Gnome tool (Applications|Accessories|Password And Encryption Keys) to manage the keyring, but NetworkManager is pretty much going to require you to use the keyring for WiFi keys. It makes sense from a we want to be easy for Windows users viewpoint, but it removes a lot of choice. If you want to manage things yourself, don't use NetworkManager, it's 100% designed to dumb-down the system so that no knowledge of networking is required, great for non-technical users, not-so for people who prefer more control. You can also just reset the current WiFi settings by removing the relevant network from your list of known networks, then it will have to prompt you for the settings next time you connect (but you'll have to remove it again if you want a prompt again, since it'll automatically add it to the known list).

Re: Network Manager Keyring
On Sun, Sep 6, 2009 at 6:47 PM, Matthew A Coulliette matthew...@cox.netwrote: Hello all, I am running Ubuntu 9.04 on an IBM thinkpad (T30). Recently, I have been having trouble with Network-Manager. So, I bought a new USB wireless receiver. I was able to install it without any trouble, and it is working fine. All of the available networks in my area, show up in the Network-Manager menu, however, when I click on one it just times out. After, investigating a little bit I found that Network-Manager asks me for my keyring password instead of for the Pre-Shared-Key. In short, NetMng is using the wrong password. It uses a password from the default keyring, instead of asking me for the PSK. I am not sure when this happened, since I had wireless working fine. Can I change it so that Network-Manager askes me for the PSK, instead of it getting one from the default keyring. If not, which keyring program does NetMng use and how do I set it up or access it. Thanks, in advance for your replies. Any help would be appreciated.
