You probably have a signal problem, what type of card is it? If it is a Atheros Chipset (Madwifi) there is an issue with the way the driver reports signal strength and the way every other card does it to cause Network-Manager to think the signal strength is lower than it really is. If this is the case you should file a bug. If you post the # here I can confirm it and add more details. > Problem #2: After I removed the network-manager package, there were no > longer any automatic DHCP request for my network connections.

You would need to enable the device in the Network Tool under system->administration after you remove network manager. > > Problem #3: Finally, I reinstalled the network-manager package.

The Ubuntu package was modified to not manage any interface configured there. _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
