Bug Description
Binary package hint: network-manager
Hi,
I have a fon hotspot (fon.com) at home. I can connect to it without problem using the following command lines but NetworkManager always fail. I attach daemon.log to this report.
The hotspot does not have WEP or WPA configured but uses a captive portal.
This works:
$ sudo /etc/init.
$ sudo iwconfig eth1 essid "Neuf WiFi FON"
$ sudo dhclient eth1
[...]
DHCPDISCOVER on eth1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 8webpage to authenticate the user
DHCPOFFER of 192.168.2.13 from 192.168.2.1
DHCPREQUEST of 192.168.2.13 on eth1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67
DHCPACK of 192.168.2.13 from 192.168.2.1
bound to 192.168.2.13 -- renewal in 519 seconds.
To reproduce:
1- Select "Neuf WiFi FON" in the list of networks in nm-applet
the first light rapidly becomes green but the second ones never does. NetworkManager decides to stop trying to connect to this access point and try another one.

This bug does not seem a duplicate of #329798 anymore because I can still reproduce it on Jaunty.
