i expect it to connect.
4)
nm hangs in the trying-to-connect procedure (bradcasting wifi symbol)
asking for entering the password from time to time.
REMARKS:
exact same settings
* worked on same machine and
* do work on another machine under Ubuntu 14.10
before 15.04 the nm allowed to leave out the certeficate (None) and NOT check
the box for "no certificate is required" when saving the connection data
thus leading to a question upon authentication attempt allowing to "ignore"
that there is no certificate.
this might just be the time delay required for things to work.
