Bug Description
After configuring network-admin with a WEP ASCII key, I found that I had to manually run "sudo ifconfig wlan0 up && sudo dhclient wlan0" in order to get my network working. So I checked my /etc/network/
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth1
#iface eth1 inet dhcp
auto eth2
#iface eth2 inet dhcp
auto ath0
#iface ath0 inet dhcp
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet ipv4ll
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wireless-key s:XXXXXXXXXXXXX
wireless-essid xxxxxx
Notice how it's missing "auto wlan0". So I changed the wireless block to:
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wireless-key1 s:XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
wireless-essid xxxxxxx
wireless-keymode open
And then I ran sudo /etc/init.
Thanks for reporting the issue. This particular bug has already
been reported to our bug tracking system, so I have marked
it as duplicate.
Thanks,
James
