Yes, and that did not work.

I'd really rather you didn't. I've given you all the relevant information. The problem is still out there as attested by others' posts.

And the same issue comes up with Ubuntu 10.10, at least with the live CD. I can't believe no one has bothered to fix this bug in the past 18 months. I assume there is not a problem with WPA encryption, but I'd like to believe there are enough users with that very commonplace wireless card and WEP for the Ubuntu coders to give a rat's butt. Again -- there is no good reason Ubuntu should not work in a situation when every other platform and wireless device does. -- 10.04 (and 9.10) can't connect to WEP-enabled wireless router https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/572642 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Same issue Asks for the authentication and then does not connect.

[Bug 572642] Re: 10.04 (and 9.10) can't connect to WEP-enabled wireless router
I have a similar problem. I have a Dell Mini 9 which connected just fine to a network with WPA just fine, but refuses to connect to my home network with 128bit WEP password. Network Manager acts like it joined the network, but it claims to be unable to get a DHCP response. -- 10.04 (and 9.10) can't connect to WEP-enabled wireless router https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/572642 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
