Title:
cant create a wireless network with a '-' in the name
Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Binary package hint: network-manager
When attempting to create a wireless network with a '-' in the name,
the network manager changes to show the trying to connect icon (the 2
dots with the spinner flying around them) and then never completes.
Hovering the mouse over this displays a pop up that says "Attempting
to join the wireless network '(null)'".
The exact details to reproduce are very straight-forward:
1- Click on the networkmanager icon in the system tray
2- Click on "Create new wireless network"
3- Enter a name for the network that contains a '-', e.g., test-laptop
4- Observe that the icon then changes to trying to connect icon
5- Hover the mouse over the icon and see it says "Attempting to join the
wireless network '(null)'"
I am having other issues with this laptop, in that the wireless
behaviour seems entirely erratic at the best of times. I have however
confirmed this bug on another computer that does work fine.
