Interesting is that when I run my installation on another computer (from a USB drive) it works fine. The other computer is faster for one thing, another is that the wifi card appears as wlan0 there, but as eth2 on this failing one. Can this make any difference?

Now with a different router operating in another broadband connection, when I try to connect to the wifi it provides, nm-applet disappears from indicator area. If I run it from the command-line it outputs this: jani@amilo:~$ nm-applet Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module" ** Message: applet now removed from the notification area ** Message: No keyring secrets found for ElisaKoti48/802-11-wireless-security; asking user. ** ERROR:nm-utils.c:1231:nm_utils_security_valid: assertion failed: (have_ap) Aborted Note that it doesn't actually ask me for the key but apparently fails when trying to do so. With the previous wireless network I was in, the key *was* requested, and the file describing that connection is still in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/. After doing the above once, there's also a definition for the non- functioning connection in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/, and all subsequent tries to start nm-applet immediately end in the error and the applet vanishing. If I delete the definition it has created for this non-functioning connection, the applet does appear again, but again when I try to connect to this network, it dies and won't come back until I rm the definition file.
