I had the same problem on both Feisty and Gutsy with a WPA passphrase that contained umlauts (öäüÖÄÜ). This passphrase worked fine with Windows wifi clients but I never was able to connect through the Ubuntu network manager, though the network ESSID was shown correctly and the signal was of high strength.
Changing the passphrase to one that did not contain any umlauts or other special characters made a connection possible for the first time. -- special characters break WPA key https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/151500 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
