I have the same issue, both on a desktop which (was using) an Asus n-15 PCIe card. (now using Ethernet) and a Laptop Lenovo Thinkpad t430 which is my work laptop. I use a partition on my external harddrive at home to boot Ubuntu off. I have also noticed that this bug persists inside of both Ubuntu 12.10, 13.04 / Mint 14 and 15
If the bug is in 13.04 then it is pretty much going to be inside Mint 15 too. I can connect to the wifi first time around, after 10 minutes it will stop loading pages, and then start to prompt me for the security key (which is already entered and seen as ******) I confirm and it will just ask me again. I have tried removing the password and re-entering it and the problem still persists. This bug has completely rendered Ubuntu/Mint useless to me without WiFi. which is a shame. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager-applet in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/930971 Title: Wireless does not work, it just keeps asking for the password Status in “network-manager-applet” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When I updated from 11.10 to 12.04, the wireless stopped working.
