I can't find any option in the nm-applet to "forget" a network connection. But the word "forget" reminded me that "forget" is the term I see in the wifi options on my Note3. So I looked in the wifi networks visible to the phone and the Flashair did not appear at first, but it did appear after I removed the card from the laptop and reinserted it. And indeed, it took the password and I connected to it. The phone said its IP address is 192.168.0.11. But when I connect to it with the laptop it says it is connected, but the icon keeps spinning around waiting for me to give it the password, which I cannot do because the GUI gives me no place to enter it. After a while it times out. I might add that the neighbors whose networks are secured operate the same way in the GUI. I have never even attempted to connect to them, but just now I tried one and got the same results - spinning icon until it times out, and never a popup asking for a password. Is there a way to connect to a network and give it a password from the command line? _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
