Package: network-manager
Version: 0.8.1-6+squeeze1
Severity: important
Network controller: Intel Corporation WiFi Link 5100
I was connected to a wireless network, it is encrypted with WEP.
I moved my laptop to another room. Then, I realised that wireless has been
disconnected because i was too far.
However, networkmanager still showed it as connected.
Trying to actually connect, I moved my laptop beside the router. I turned off
the wireless hardware switch and turned it back on. But even when the hardware
wireless switch is off, networkmanager still shows the network as connected.
Then i clicked "disconnect" on the networkmanager's gnome applet. Then i did a
reconnect. During the reconnect, networkmanager repeatedly prompted me to enter
the WEP key, which I did. The WEP key is correct as it is the same as what i
previously used. After many retiries, networkmanager gave up. I tried to
reconnect again, just that this time, after entering the WEP key, kerneloops
applet notified me that the system has encountered a kernel failure.
