I guess there must be some hardcoded timeout in NM. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1650835
Title: wifi association times out while typing password Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Visiting inlaws for the holidays. The wifi password is a long numeric string, which takes a long time to type. I typed it several times and failed to connect. I verified it and tried again and again. Finally typed it into text file, copied and pasted, it connected. I suspect the connection was timing out or something while I typed the stupid long numeric password. What I expected to happen: type password, click connect, get connection, or some useful error. user happy. What actually happened: type password, click connect, dialog disappears and nothing else happens. user confused and unhappy. It shouldn't silently fail because I'm taking a long time to type. thanks, love you! <3 $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS Release: 16.04 $ apt-cache policy network-manager network-manager: Installed: 1.2.2-0ubuntu0.16.04.3 Candidate: 1.2.2-0ubuntu0.16.04.3 Version table: *** 1.2.2-0ubuntu0.16.04.3 500 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial-updates/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1.1.93-0ubuntu4 500 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/main amd64 Packages ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: network-manager 1.2.2-0ubuntu0.16.04.3 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-53.74-generic 4.4.30 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-53-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.1 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Sat Dec 17 21:24:22 2016 IfupdownConfig: # interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8) auto lo iface lo inet loopback InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-10-03 (76 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Release amd64 (20160719) IpRoute: default via 192.168.0.1 dev wlp4s0 proto static metric 600 169.254.0.0/16 dev wlp4s0 scope link metric 1000 192.168.0.0/24 dev wlp4s0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.0.27 metric 600 NetworkManager.state: [main] NetworkingEnabled=true WirelessEnabled=true WWANEnabled=true SourcePackage: network-manager UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) nmcli-dev: DEVICE TYPE STATE DBUS-PATH CONNECTION CON-UUID CON-PATH wlp4s0 wifi connected /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/0 Harry 5G 10d05741-6f9e-468e-b6fd-8f0d5a739ce2 /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/4 enp0s31f6 ethernet unavailable /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/1 -- -- -- lo loopback unmanaged /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/Devices/2 -- -- -- nmcli-nm: RUNNING VERSION STATE STARTUP CONNECTIVITY NETWORKING WIFI-HW WIFI WWAN-HW WWAN running 1.2.2 connected started full enabled enabled enabled enabled enabled To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1650835/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
