"Me too" System: - kubuntu feisty - Intel Mac Mini - Built-in Atheros "Airport extreme"
Base station: - Airport - WEP40 encryption - Other machines connect fine: Windows, Gentoo, FreeBSD, MacOSX, and even a G4 Cube w/ old-school airport card running Edgy My Network Manager results are similar to RealMurphy's (above). It successfully scans for and identifies the AP. I click my AP and am prompted for the WEP key, which I enter in hex format. It then starts trying to associate but hangs up at 28% and disappears about a minute later having failed to associate. Attempting to associate via iwconfig also fails in a similar fashion. A "sudo iwlist ath0 scan" finds my AP (and other nearby AP's). I select the essid and set the wep key using "sudo iwconfig ath0 essid <myessid>" and "sudo iwconfig ath0 key <my40bitwepkeyashex>", respectively. Following that, a "sudo iwconfig" still reports "Access Point: Not- Associated" and, as expected, a "sudo dhclient ath0" fails as well. Attempting to associate via System Settings -> Network Settings fails. The ath0 interface ends up "enabled" but it's not associated and has been assigned no ip address. Presumably, it's failing silently in a similar fashion to the other methods. Love your work, guys. Any more details I can provide, just ask. -- Cannot associate with unencrypted networks using bcm43xx chipset (ndiswrapper driver) https://launchpad.net/bugs/42504 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
