Dont know if this will help anyone, but running wicd daemon with -u keeps my connection up even though the wicd-client reports signal strength of 0. This is with a fresh install of wicd and broadcom wl drivers. -- jaunty wicd wpa2 constant reconnect https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/334445 You

I've modified Wicd to not crash if the iwconfig output does not include the signal strength. This fix is available in 1.6.1. ** Changed in: wicd Importance: Undecided = Medium ** Changed in: wicd Status: New = Fix Released ** Changed in: wicd Assignee: (unassigned) = Adam

The underlying problem (for me at least) seems to be the Broadcom wl driver flaking out. wicd calls iwconfig to get signal strength, iwconfig calls into the driver, but gets an error rather than the stats it needs. I've opened bug 364413 against the driver / linux-restricted-modules:

Just thought I'd add another couple of ideas... Network Manager worked fine. Unchecking the reconnect automatically on connection loss option worked fine. Still showed a low percent but network performance was fine. Since the release of 9.04, I've installed fresh on one of my laptops (the

Hi, I get this issue too. Broadcom BCM4328 rev03, MacBook3,1, Ubuntu 9.04 with STA driver from repos and wicd 1.5.9-2. I use WPA2 Personal. Precisely the same issue with wicd connecting fine and then thrashing around until I stop it. NetworkManager works fine, but the applet icon consistently

I can at least partially confirm Dan's comments from 9 March: It looks like you're probably dealing with a driver issue. Your iwconfig output doesn't show any link quality or even a signal/noise level when you're connected to your network. I'm on a Dell Latitude D830, with Broadcom 4312

Hi Dan, No problem, glad to be of help, well more of time wasting. I was not really that concerned with digging deeper into this issue, but if you feel that we should, to help others, should they run into a similar issue, then I don't mind. But I have a workaround and alternative software

Thanks for providing that info, Matt. It looks like you're probably dealing with a driver issue. Your iwconfig output doesn't show any link quality or even a signal/noise level when you're connected to your network. Without it, wicd assumes the link quality is 0, which will lead to a

Can you enable debug mode through the preferences window, let try connecting, let the reconnect loop run a couple of times, and then post the contents of /var/log/wicd/wicd.log. I'd also like to see the output of sudo iwconfig wireless interface after you connect but before wicd disconnects you.
