ipw2200 driver doesn't report any capabilities
I think I saw some patch (ubuntu only?) that adds wep support even if nothing
is advertised but only in certain cases. Nothing is added if you manually try
to add a network.
I added a note to my upstream bug but I didn't mention this behavior I observed
in my originial bug report upstream and I

That kernel patch will fix the encryption reporting and ruin my

Why not?
Omar, if signal strength also needs to be adjusted, please make sure
this is clear in the upstream bug report. AFAIK there is no issue with
signal level on ipw2x00 drivers.

I think there's a related bug here. network-manager grays out the WPA
network when a card has no reported WPA capabilities. But I could still
get at WEP networks, even if it wasn't letting me connect. Shouldn't WEP
also get grayed out if the card has no WEP capabilities listed?

Looks reasonable; but let's get upstream input on that patch before
including it.

Title:
ipw2200 driver doesn't report
Looks like a patch that could go upstream too. if nl80211 reports no
capabilities then try wext. and considering your list (appreciate your
research here), it seems a good option. only recently nm added support
for the nl80211 interface, so perhaps they are a bit ahead of the kernel
in this
ok that patch obviously solves the problem for all ipw2100 und ipw2200
owners but there are potentially some more drivers affected by the
strange kernel behavior of not reporting a non nl80211 compliant driver
to userspace (at least not in an way nm understands). If I assume that
every driver that
I suggest this patch which doesn't rely on string comparison of driver
names that much.

Title:

Also affects network-manager. We can try to play nice and special case
ipw2200 as a distro patch if it's feasible. I'll look into the
feasibility of doing this in the NM code; hopefully we have the
necessary data to make this change.

Importance:
Jools, since you already patched network-manager for your own use, would
you mind testing the attached patch? I don't happen to have devices that
use the ipw2100 or ipw2200 driver.
