Public bug reported: The wireless network can be seen, and occasionally connects after a cold boot. Most of the time network-manager complains that the WEP key is not correct repeatedly and refuses to get a DHCP lease.
Beta release updated 4/10/08 on a gen 2 MacBook Pro (atheros wifi) connecting to a BT home hub with WEP 64 bit encryption (configuration as shipped). No previous problems with Kubuntu 7.10 and the same hardware using self-compiled drivers.
