Public bug reported: I have a realtek 8192se wifi card in my Toshiba Qosmio X500. In Maverick I had to compile and install the driver from realtek to make it work, because it had the same problem that is has now: it tries to connect and keeps failking, asking for the wifi password (which of course was the right one). The connection encryption is WPA2. The card takes too many tries to connect to the wifi. If I click on the Network Manager and disable wifi, wait a few secons, and enable it back, the chances to get a connection go up (especially if this is done as soon logged in). Once the connection is stablished, it seems stable.
