Hi,

With the previous NetworkManager (0.4.*) I could
connect fine to WEP enabled wireless networks. SInce upgrading to 0.5.* I have been unable to connect - Despite entering the *correct* pass phrase 9128bit) it never logs in and just keeps asking for the pass phrase. Has anyone else
had problems ?

cheers Chris



For me it works once I selected to use wep 128 using a
hex key instead of the pass-phrase.

Now if I can just get the keyring manager to stop
asking for the password after each boot...

-j

No such problem here. But then again, I have /always/ configured WEP with the hex key. I've never even found a way to use the passphrase.

I have only needed to access that hex key once per installation on any computer. I think the extra time taken to copy the hex key from another screen is a small price to pay for the added security.
