It looks like there might be some error in the config with the device
setting?

I'm using NetworkManager here, and the wpa_supplicant service is
disabled (via chkconfig).  NM handles starting it when needed.  I
connect to my home network using WPA2 and it's worked wonderfully for
a long time.

Are you using NM or the older network service (and
system-config-network)?

 I am using NM, with wpa_supp enabled. Should I disable it?

 How do I configure the device setting when using NM?

 Thanks!

    Take care
    Oliver
