hi, for me, NM 0.5 has not been able to connect to ap's in various (unencrypted) environments. NM 0.4 was working just fine... ever since upgrading to NM 0.5 i have had to stop NM and connect to wireless networks by hand using "ifup ath0" and specifying the network to connect to via "iwconfig ath0 ap xxx" or "iwconfig ath0 essid xxx" .
i'm running FC4, all up2date, see below for versions and card specs and some debugging messages. any help would be appreciated. /var/log/messages: dhcdbd: message_handler: message handler not found under /com/redhat/dhcp/ath0 for sub-path ath0.dbus.get.reason NetworkManager-0.5.1-1.FC4.4 dhcdbd-1.9-1.FC4 wireless-tools-28-0.pre10.4 dhcp-3.0.2-24.FC4 ath0: Atheros 5212 (abg mini pci card, in bg mode) ath_hal: 0.9.14.9 (AR5210, AR5211, AR5212, RF5111, RF5112, RF2413) wlan: 0.8.6.0 (EXPERIMENTAL) ath_pci: 0.9.6.0 (EXPERIMENTAL) "/usr/bin/dbus-send --system --dest=com.redhat.dhcp --type=method_call --print-reply --reply-timeout=20000 /com/redhat/dhcp/ath0 com.redhat.dhcp.up uint32:31 uint32:2" gives "method return sender=:1.22 -> dest=:1.29 uint32 0" and in /var/log/messages Oct 26 16:25:14 laptop dhclient: Internet Systems Consortium DHCP Client V3.0.2-RedHat Oct 26 16:25:14 laptop dhclient: Copyright 2004 Internet Systems Consortium.
