I would like to add that this bug is actually much more obtrusive than my original comment makes it out to be.
1) Any time network manager has a hard time connecting to a router--even if I'm right next to the router and, for example, the router gets unplugged and rebooted--it seems to think it's an authentication problem and prompts for the password. 2) Regardless of whether I press enter to use the stored password or cancel to wait for the router to become available, it ALWAYS not only (a) deletes the password currently stored but (much more annoyingly) (b) sets it so that no matter how many times I enter the password through the dialog when prompted for it, it NEVER saves to the keyring. 3) As a result, EVERY TIME network manager has a hard time accessing the network, I must manually go into "Edit connections", locate the wireless I want to use, click on the "wireless security" tab, and enter the password. This is EXTREMELY aggravating. If I don't manually enter the password, I am prompted EVERY time I want to use the network. I really appreciated back in the old days when network manager just remembered my password and only changed it I successfully authenticated with a new one. It seems that network manager was redesigned and many of the things that used to work perfectly no longer work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/877803 Title: network-manager forgets wireless password after I cancel connection To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/877803/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
