In my case (WPA enterprise with TTLS) the password is remembered
independently of the available to all users option. The problem is
that since oneiric it is stored in /etc/NetworkManager as plaintext and
not in the keyring.

@Scott Talbert: I see the 'available to all users' box grayed out, if
the passphrase is not saved. If I swtich to the 'Wireless Security' Tab
and enter a password, the box becomes clickable.
Btw: Thanks for the workaround.

As for the workaround, I'm seeing the 'available to all users' box
grayed out for some of my wireless connections. Any idea why that is?
Is this still a problem in Precise?

I have this bug too, upgraded to 11.10 from 11.04 and had to retype the pw
after every suspend. Checking 'available to all users' fixes it and is a mighty
fine work around.
Thanks Team!

Any update on this? Not only do I get prompted every time I login, but
if I don't touch my computer for a few days I unlock it and have
hundreds of password prompts open...

This happens on all four computers where I put oneiric (3 upgraded from
natty, 1 fresh install). The behaviour is always the same:
1. I start with wifi configured and wireless password set and stored in
keyring. Everything works.
2. When network-manager tries to reconnect (after a signall loss
FWIW. Never had the issue of not remembering wl pw. (upgraded from Natty in
June)
Wired is set to automatic connect, available to all user.
Wireless is set to automatic connect, available to all user is disabled.

Okay, I believe I've finally made good progress.. Even if it's quite sad
it happened so late ;)
To get more information, I decided to give the Fedora 16 Live CD a try,
since it was likely broken there too in which case I could provide
useful information to upstream to help with the debugging --
I actually meant whether you see all your configured connections in the
connection editor (click the applet, then Edit Connections..), including
VPN connections you may have configured. This is going to clarify
whether there was an issue with migration or if it's just with gnome-
keyring, or just
Hmm, it actually really doesn't sound like the same thing now, it looks
far more like an issue specific to passwords in gnome-keyring.
I'm opening a task for gnome-keyring.
To verify; do you see all of the connections you should see in network-
manager, or could some one them be missing?

Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean by see all the connections I should
see in network-manager. In the drop down from the network indicator, I
see the wired and wireless connection as I would expect (i.e, one when
only one is connected, both when both are connected). There are of
course the other
Thunderbird also lost ability to remember passwords through an upgrade
(specifically an address book connection to a password protected ldap
server). Seems like that is probably another symptom of the same
problem? If not, let me know and I can file a separate bug.

Great, thanks Guillaume.
Unfortunately, this is just a workaround for now; I'm working on
reproducing the issue in a controllable manner and pinpointing the exact
source of the issue.

An upgrade from 11.04 (with the same wireless networks that it has known
about for a long time).
Available to all users was not checked. After enabling that, I think
it is now remembering the password.

Thanks, so this is most likely then an issue in how passwords got

Is this with an upgrade from Natty or a new installation?
New connections should be writing passwords to the relevant connection's
config file in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections; so that the
password would be remembered.
As a workaround, could you please verify if the connection is set to
