** Description changed: Issue: Upgrade to Intrepid Ibex 8.10 (kernel version 2.6.27-7-generic) breaks wireless USB network connection that worked in Hardy Heron 8.04 (kernel version 2.6.24-21-generic). Assessment: Thinkpad T60, Microsoft Broadband Networking Wireless USB Adapter - model MN-510. No wired connection used. Internal Wireless (Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan]) OFF. LEDs on MN-510 are on. Network Configuration displays (all options grayed out): Wired Network (radio button unchecked) Auto eth0 Wireless Network (Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan]) wireless is disabled Wireless Network (Microsoft MN510 802.11b Adapter) wireless is disabled Enable Networking is checked Enable Wireless is grayed out lsusb displays: Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 004 Device 002: ID 0483:2016 SGS Thomson Microelectronics Fingerprint Reader Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 001 Device 006: ID 045e:006e Microsoft Corp.

Impact: If something goes wrong with onboard wireless networking, will not be able to use USB. Concern of possible network issues. Redundant to have to use onboard and USB connections. Receives better wireless connection via USB than with onboard. With Hardy, I was able to leave the onboard wireless OFF, plug in the Wireless USB adapter, the connection would pick up and connect automatically. Now with Ibex I have to enable the onboard wireless before the USB wireless will work. + + Update Oct 28, 2008: + + I believe I have isolated the issue to the network manager applet. The + previous version I was using was nm-applet.0.6.6 and this has been + updated to network-manager applet 0.7.0. Reverting to previous version + will probably fix issue, still need to verify. + + At this point, I don't know whether this bug should be closed, and/or + sent to the team that works on the network-manager applet, or something + else.
