The main problem seems to be on laptops which use wireless vendor

those, it seems like the user is not prompted for credentials quick enough.
And once they are prompted, it either doesn't work, or they get prompted
again, and eventually they will work and connect.
I'm just wondering if anyone else ran into this or a similar type problem
and if so, what did you do to correct it?
Disable the vendor-supplied utility and use the native supplicant? It
ain't perfect but it works. (However, I actually find that the
Dell-supplied utility in my laptop works better than the native one, YMMV).
