Bug Description
Hi all,
I have a problem with WPA2 wireless networks: these networks are NOT detected and NOT found with Network-Manager and Wicd.
No problems for WPA networks or WEP networks.
It happens in Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) 64 bits. My wireless card is BCM4312. Same problem even after installing driver through ndiswrapper.
Could anybody help on it?
Thanks and regards.

I have the same problem as Alberto, but I'm using a 32 bit Kubuntu Karmic 9.10 with the 2.6.31-14-generic kernel. The lspci command shows I'm using an Atheros 2413 wireless modem and I'm using the ath5k module.
The problem is I'm using a WPA2 Personal-encrypted connection with the broadcasting Essid disabled (hidden essid) and it isn't detecting the connection (no connection at all). I tried to discover the network with "sudo iwlist scan", but had no success, but it discovers neighbor connections and even shows my belkin54g router, but can't connect to the wpa2 connection. Prior to Jaunty distro the laptop connected without any problem but after Jaunty it didn't work at all. I updated to Karmic recently and after several attempts and follow some guides, it still shows the above commented problem.
I would like to give you more data about this but unfortunately I don't know which one more could it be necessary to solve this. If you are so kind to tell me what can I do to give you the required information in order to diagnose the problem, I will post it gladly.
Thank you very much in advance to any help given in this subject and for your very nice work with the Ubuntu distros.
My best regards.
