Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: network-manager
I was attempting to connect to a 2701HGV-W Gateway running dual WPA/WPA2
authentication. I was unable to connect, with daemon.log showing
repeated copies of:
Oct 24 17:03:49 mach4 wpa_supplicant[1512]: CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-RESULTS

Running iwlist scan at the time showed two cells with the same SSID, but
different addresses, and each with a different authentication method.
I was able to work around this issue by disabling WPA authentication, so only
WPA2 authentication was offered. Then network manager was able to connect
without issues.
This behaviour is seen on a 2701HGV-W Gateway router, which is one
offered with some Telstra ADSL packages. Currently, the default set up
for these routers will essentially prevent any linux computer from
connecting wirelessly.
