I'm seeing this same thing with an Eduroam wifi, it used to work in
until 12.10 but now in 13.04 it always asks me for the password when
booting. I have tried everything available for similar problems and I
cannot get it to work.

I stumbled upon this configuration file, which goes in
/etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/eduroam:

[ipv6]
method=auto
ip6-privacy=2

[connection]
id=eduroam
uuid=2fb6ac81-bb1c-44df-ba87-f0ec95e3d0d1
type=802-11-wireless
timestamp=1349875620

[802-11-wireless]
ssid=eduroam
mode=infrastructure
security=802-11-wireless-security

[802-1x]
eap=ttls;
identity=<change this>@studserv.uni-leipzig.de
phase2-auth=pap
password=<change this>

[ipv4]
method=auto

[802-11-wireless-security]
key-mgmt=wpa-eap

Mine was almost identical, but did not have the line which starts with
"password". After introducing this line (and deleting two other lines
that appeared in my configuration file but not here) now after rebooting
"eduroam" does not ask for a password any more.

So it seems that the bug is that after editing the connection in the
NetworkManager GUI this password line is not saved in the system
configuration file, if I understand correctly how nm works.
