The best thing you can do is run Network-Manager in Debug and post the output: http://live.gnome.org/DarrenAlbers/NetworkManagerFAQ#head-8f6f8d5923a8859b5ef88ce2158d50b48bee9614 The IPW2200 is a very reliable card and I am running it under Dapper with no issues (Though I am not running the Dapper packages anymore) so this is certainly odd behavior. So judging by what you told me something is causing network-manager or your card to think it does not support WPA so it won't connect to your WPA network. If you can output the result of Network-Manager from the link I posted above it will help narrow down the issue. Also can you post the output of: dmesg | grep ipw Thanks, Darren _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
