I tested again with a different AP, open AP so no WEP or WPA, borrowed this AP just for testing so no other users, AP next to test PC (64/70 signal). Using wpasupplicant-0.6.4-2 and network- manager-0.7-0ubuntu1~nm1~intrepid1. Config in /etc/NetworkManager so no front-end delay. Hopefully this will eliminate any potential issues.
Conclusions: associating with wpa_supplicant takes ~60 seconds. Total connect time with NetworkManager is ~70 seconds. Manual 'ifup' takes ~15 seconds. wpa_supplicant goes through the same numerous states as before. Again, this is with no authentication necessary. > please try to put exactly the config paramaters you see in syslog by > NM in your wpa_supplicant.conf ... does that make the manual case > behave similar to NM? The config is exactly the same - there is not much to configure - only ssid, scan_ssid=1, key_mgmt=NONE, priority=1. The manual case associates in ~10 seconds. Steps to reproduce: In one terminal run: wpa_supplicant -u -d -t In another terminal run: NetworkManager --no-daemon You should see wpa_supplicant going through many states before associating. Then terminate both processes and try: wpa_supplicant -iath0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -d -t -- Some drivers take too long to associate (Was: network-manager 0.7 always asks for WPA passphrase) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/292054 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
