Thanks, Zack. Yes, I had done that too (although I didn't put it in a script like you - I like your script, you bring down usb0 to clean up the routing table and call udhcpc eth0 again after ifup eth0 to make sure you get an IP).
However, I would like to see the GUI "doing the right thing". Yesterday I did bite the bullet and copied my random-gen password byte by byte into the password field while looking at it displayed in my PC. It took me a couple of minutes to do it - you can't see what you're inputting, so it takes time to do it right. But the frustrating part is that later I switched off wifi in the GUI, and when I turned it back on, IT ASKED FOR THE PASSWORD AGAIN!!!! AAAARRGGGHHH!! Obviously, I won't go through that again. So, now I have 3 complaints/wishes for the wifi gui: 1 - always allow pasting into password field; 2 - an option to allow visual feedback (see the actual chars) input into the password field; 3 - store the already input password!!! Should I send this to another list to get developer attention?
