[Bug 164955] Re: [gutsy] network-admin does not update WPA PSK
I just downloaded Ubuntu 8.10 and I have the same problem. I edit wireless security using WPA WPA2 Personal placing my encryption Key in the password field. After pressing OK I enable wireless and the system attempts to connect to my network. Eventually a dialog box shows up with the field for the password filled in with a very long string of characters. I delete the characters and put in my encryption key again. Finally, the system connects successfully to my network. Has there been any fix or work around for this problem?

We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release?

[Bug 164955] Re: [gutsy] network-admin does not update WPA PSK
I found some sort of fix for it. It seems that by default network-admin does not write auto wlan0 in /etc/network/interfaces. This can be fixed by editing ~/.gnome2/network-admin-locations/name of location and changing auto=false to auto=true in the section corresponding to the wireless interface. I'm not sure why this is necessary, though. -- [gutsy] network-admin does not update WPA PSK https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/164955 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 164955] Re: [gutsy] network-admin does not update WPA PSK
I think this should have been fixed by now, ok, it's not very important because not many people configure its wireless LAN manually... but for the ones who do it, it's very annoying having to retype your WPA passphrase every time you boot Ubuntu (it also means having to type your sudo password TWO times, now because of the Policy Kit, every time you boot the OS), and of course, the issue with the ESSID string which has to be written between commas in order to get correctly recognised the blank spaces is another annoying bug.

Yes, I can confirm this bug under the development version of Ubuntu, Hardy Heron. The attachment is an screenshot, showing a very long string in the password field, when it should be an string of 12 characters. Also note that the ESSID is between commas, which should not be needed. -- [gutsy] network-admin does not update WPA PSK https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/164955 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi there Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

[Bug 164955] Re: [gutsy] network-admin does not update WPA PSK
I think I have a similar issue. I use manual configuration to connect to my WLAN network. I write the correct ESSID, then I select WPA Personal as my password type, and then I write my PASSPHRASE (not the PSK key resulting from the passphrase). Of course, I set up correctly all the IP parameters. After configuring manually my wireless connection, it doesn't get connected. In my router, the laptop is connected but not authenticated, so the problem must be the PSK key that the laptop is using. Effectively, that's the problem, network-admin does not write a correct PSK key on the /etc/network/interfaces file, because using the command wpa_passphrase gives me a different PSK key which works after restarting the interfaces with /etc/init.d/networking stop and /etc/init.d/networking start (before restarting the networking service, I modifiy the PSK key in the interfaces file and put the correct one). And this is an annoying problem, because every time I start Ubuntu, I have to change the PSK key on the interfaces file, because the PSK key is overridden with the wrong one, so I have to modify it and restart the networking service everytime I start Ubuntu. -- [gutsy] network-admin does not update WPA PSK https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/164955 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 164955] Re: [gutsy] network-admin does not update WPA PSK
Well, I think I've found the solution... you must put your ESSID between () symbol. For example, my ESSID is Jazztel Wireless 01 I tried with Jazztel\ Wireless\ 01 and it would encode the passphrase OK, but the wpa-ssid of the interfaces file resulted in Jazztel\ Wireless\ 01 SSID, so it would not connect. After trying that, I wrote Jazztel Wireless 01, the passhprase was correctly encoded and the resulting wpa-ssid line in the interfaces file was Jazztel Wireless 01. With that SSID it connects flawlessly. So the conclusion is that the SSID must be between commas () (or whatever name has that symbol in english :) ) in order to get the WPA key correctly encoded and the SSID string correctly represented. -- [gutsy] network-admin does not update WPA PSK https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/164955 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 164955] Re: [gutsy] network-admin does not update WPA PSK
Uh, after a few reboots, it seems that I have to manually retype the passphrase on the network-admin dialog, because it gets changed to a very long string. Once I retype it and close the properties dialog of the wireless adapter, the internet connection starts working again. I think this is the exact bug reported in the first message, and I was suffering another bug related to strings representation. -- [gutsy] network-admin does not update WPA PSK https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/164955 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
