I am seeing this behaviour as well when connecting to some open access points. I have never seen it at home with my WPA access point.
My network card is also a Dell: 0b:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01) iwconfig correctly reports the signal strength. It seems to me like this may be a Network Manager problem, since it is not detecting the essid correctly when it says "Wireless network connection to '(none)'". At home, it shows the actual essid and also shows the correct signal strength. -- [broadcom] Network Manager Not Displaying Signal Strength https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/291936 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
