Hello, I also had to comment everything out in order to get WPA connection to work.
My problem is that I am using a Virtualbox machine (Ubuntu as a Host - Windows as a Guest) and I want to use the host interface networking. It implies to create a bridge in "/etc/network/interfaces" and a virtual interface. Since I have to disable everything to get my WiFi working, it is very annoying because I have to modify my "/etc/network/interfaces" and reboot each time I need to start my Virtual Machine ! My card is a ipw2200 on a 7.04 Feisty using Network-Manager. The added lines in "/etc/network/interfaces" : auto tap0 iface tap0 inet manual up ifconfig $IFACE 0.0.0.0 up down ifconfig $IFACE down tunctl_user vboxuser auto br0 iface br0 inet dhcp bridge_ports all tap0 -- Unless all entries but lo related ones are commented out from /etc/network/interfaces network manager does not show a wifi icon and therefore does not allow you to connect to wpa encryted networks https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/129160 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
