To the best of my memory I tried on the passworded notwork and got the
error. Rebooted and tried again with the same error. Then about an hour
later on the open network without rebooting, same error. Then rebooted and
got the same error again. Then I waited a good five hours but can't
remember if I rebooted again or not.
