Well, apparently it's not as fixed as we'd like.  I just installed 8.04
beta yesterday on my laptop (previously running 6.06 and connecting to
my non-SSID-broadasting wireless with no trouble), and was unable to
connect.  I found this bug report, so I plugged in a cable to the router
and upgraded all packages to the current versions (including network-
manager-0.6.6-0ubuntu5).  Unfortunately, I'm still getting the exact
same results as shown in Gene's screen shot (two posts above).  the tray
icon shows me connected w/ 97% signal strength, but connection info
shows I have no IP address, and I am unable to use the network.  Is
there something I'm overlooking here?  (Oh, and I just tried connecting
to some non existent network with a total nonsense name and it still
shows I have 97% signals strength for that one too :p)

My wireless is using WEP (it's an old Toshiba router and that's the only
security mode it has).

Please let me know what I can do to help pin down this bug so we can
hopefully get a fix before release.
