What happened?
==============
If a Wifi password is provided during the install, the Wifi network is supposed to be preconfigured with that password after install. It's not working with Ubuntu 23.10.
Steps to reproduce
==================
Use the new Ubuntu Desktop installer to install Ubuntu 23.10 from a computer that has a wifi card
During the install, connect to a password-protected wifi network
After the install, the computer should be automatically connected to that network
Additional context
20230920 Ubuntu Desktop Mantic ISO
Ubuntu Desktop 23.10 now uses Netplan as the NetworkManager backend.
I do have a /etc/netplan/90-NM-{redacted-UUID}.yaml file which has the network listed but it doesn't seem to have the password saved.
wifi-security.auth-alg: "open" does not sound right to me.
