Regarding WPA support remember you have existing G1G1 users out in the wild using WPA plus a new G1G1 is scheduled for November time frame. It is also possible that a deployment or two use WPA.
There are suspend related bugs in 8.2-759. 1.) There is a nasty suspend related networking bug that requires a hard boot to get working again. Turn on power management, let the laptop suspend, (screen dims), and then close the lid. Open the lid again and the wireless connectivity is dead. Sometimes you have to repeat the lid closing several times to get the network stack dropped. Seems to happen the quickest if you have been using the network for a shared activity such as chat for a while. ( Bug does not seem to happen if ohmd is logging). Once this happens restarting sugar will not revive it. I have had to reboot to get wireless working again. 2.) I noticed in build 757 after opening the lid the system would attempt to connect to the last network device it had been connected to. With 759 it looks for a mesh first no matter that you had been connected to an AP last. 3.). If the laptop is in suspend, closing the lid does not turn off the backlight. (I look through the USB port after I close the lid and the light is still on. ). Robert H.
