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.

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.

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

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
In Ubuntu 9.04 beta my problem with constant reconnection is solved. The
culprit before was an older version of the proprietary driver in Ubuntu
reps (BCM4328 rev03 card).

Hi,
I have a similar/the same problem on my Dell Latitude D630, Ubuntu 9.04,
BCM4328 (rev 03) card, driver Broadcom STA from Ubuntu repository,
wireless router D-Link DI-524.
I connect to my WPA2 home network and connection lives for a couple of
seconds, then reconnects. The menu shown signal
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

Okay re-installed alternate on the Inspiron 1520... Able to connect
fine with the default Network Manager, both wireless and wired. Ran an
update, and installed all of the updates. Rebooted, and am now
installing the Partial Upgrade updates (over the wireless connection.)
After installing all
Alright I have a few things here...
Unchecking the Automatically reconnect on connection loss gives me a stable
connection, though the taskbar (panel?) icon shows limited connection still.
No biggie.
Before getting disconnected from I show this as the iwconfig output:

Okay I am attaching the wicd.log file. Removed the wpa key. I don't
know if it will help, but tonight after work, I am going to connect to
an unsecured network.
Alright so I guess this is not a super major issue, since Network
Manager still works fine! Sorry for bugging you Dan. I am totally
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.
