>From my POV, the bug has not been fixed.
1. AIUI, it's still trying to connect to arbitrary connections (i.e.
BEER), instead of letting the user decide which connection to use.
2. The new error message, something like "Insufficient privileges to
add/activate connection" doesn't give the user any idea how to fix the
problem
3. There is inconsistency about passwords. The fact that BEER prompts
me for a password leads me to expect that if I choose a different
network, I would be prompted for a password, not get an error.

Title:
wifi login broken in Quantal
Status in “unity-greeter” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
When lightdm starts up, it prompts me to enter the password for the
WiFi network "BEER", but this is not my network, and I don't have
credentials for it.
When I attempt to select a correct network, "bentley5", I get the
error message "(32) Not authorized to control networking".
Of course, when I start a Unity session, it automatically logs me into
"bentley5" (as it did under precise).
