I have a desktop with wireless, due to some cabling difficulties. I'm trying to switch from "Network" to "NetworkManager" because we're moving our wireless from WEP to WPA-PSK. Using Network Manager, I can configure a connection with a static IP address and things seem fine. BUT, I want this connection established at boot time and I don't want to have to manually enter the WPA-PSK password. So, I used EDIT CONNECTIONS to edit the connection and checked "Available to all users". When I click "Apply", the "Auto xxxx" has disappeared from the list of wireless connections. Clicking on the network from the list shown my nm-applet seems to create an "Auto xxxx" that uses DHCP and has forgotten the password. How do I configure a WPA-PSK wireless connection that (1) is remembered and (2) available whether or not I'm logged in? -- -- Steve
You don't have to move away from network in the first place. You can use wpa_supplicant with network. You just need to make sure it's started before network.
