** Description changed:
- I had to set a specific setup for organisational wireless network. I did so,
but made a mistake: my username.
- Now I can't connect, obvious. I get a pop-up asking for my password. The
username is grayed out. Even if I entered the correct password, it would not
connect me, obvious.
- But I can't rectify my username: on the pop-up ("Wireless Network
Authentication Required") it is grayed out. And under "Edit Connections ..." I
cannot delete the wrong entry: Because it is not yet there (it never
connected). This is a viscous circle that must not happen. What could I do but
reinstalling, or at least delete the user completely!? I need to connect to my
company network, but I can't. and I won't be able to, ever, because it looks
like I can't rectify the mistake I made with the username, ever.

Could this be true??
