Hello, I encountered the same bug on Feisty with my Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945 card and WAP encrypted network. Only WEP keys could be entered through the network manager interface. Commenting out everything unrelated to "lo" in /etc/network/interfaces, adding the /etc/default/wpasupplicant as suggested and switching the SSID broadcast on did the trick.
Maybe this last point is related to this bug : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/50214 or the third point of this post : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/NetworkManager#head-d34a5c8e736bbaaa2f9447b3934c46a00577a6dc Many thanks for the workaround anyway. Philippe -- Unless all entries but lo related ones are commented out from /etc/network/interfaces network manager does not show a wifi icon and therefore does not allow you to connect to wpa encryted networks https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/129160 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
