Public bug reported:
Hi,
First of all, this bug may be a duplicate of bug #80499 or #67152...
I tried to configure my wifi network by using network-admin instead of
network-manager. (NM works fine, but typing the password to unlock the
access to the wep key is not good for my mother...)
When I start the computer, the network is not working, sudo iwconfig
doesn't show the wep key and no IP address is given. Same behaviour if I
unplug/plug the dongle...
