[Bug 46043] Re: Unable to connect to network using airo_cs card
This sounds like a problem with the driver. The bcm43xx driver is known to not have effective power management in it yet. (It's an immature driver.) I would recommend giving it a whirl with ndiswrapper to confirm, but NetworkManager in edgy is currently broken with that. -- Unable to connect to network using airo_cs card https://launchpad.net/bugs/46043 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I agree that the bcm43xx driver is immature, but what about it not working with the airo_cs driver? This driver is quite mature and (as described in the initial report) will list APs but won't connect to them. I have taken to using apt's preferences file to Pin to version 0.5.1 since the airo_cs card does work with that version of network-manager. -- Ian Berry Graduate Student -- Teaching Assistant Department of Mathematics Statistics University of New Hampshire http://www.math.unh.edu/~iberry/ http://chaos.unh.edu/ -- Unable to connect to network using airo_cs card https://launchpad.net/bugs/46043 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Very misleading bug report. Basically looks like another case of bug 48473. -- Unable to connect to network using airo_cs card https://launchpad.net/bugs/46043 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 46043] Re: Unable to connect to network using airo_cs card
I just upgraded to Edgy Beta, and the behavior is still occurring. I *can* connect to my network using iwconfig dhclient, just not via network manager. Any ideas as to whether this is a problem in network manager, wpa suppliant, or the net driver? I'm not sure what I can do to further debug this. -- Unable to connect to network using airo_cs card https://launchpad.net/bugs/46043 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 46043] Re: Unable to connect to network using airo_cs card
I also have a Dapper installation on my laptop with a PCMCIA Xircom CWE-1130 card (rebranded aironet 802.11b) that fails to connect via nm- applet but will successfully connect at home or work with iwconfig and dhclient. Home is 64bit WEP and work is non-broadcasting, unencrypted [not my decision]). Below is the very similar output from my syslog, if there is anything I can add please contact me. Network Manager is a great project and I would be very interested in helping as much as possible. ~ SYSLOG snippet ~ Jul 24 20:54:13 localhost NetworkManager: information^Imatch Jul 24 20:54:13 localhost NetworkManager: debug info^I[1153788853.726291] nm_device_802_11_wireless_get_activation_ap (): Forcing AP 'highland' Jul 24 20:54:13 localhost NetworkManager: information^IUser Switch: /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/eth2 / highland Jul 24 20:54:13 localhost NetworkManager: information^IDeactivating device eth2.
