Comment 21 for bug 194714

I did try trough "manual configuration" and did not succeed.

I've spent a few hours this morning in different tests while taking notes of what was going on in syslog and this line appeared only when I tried to connect through ndiswrapper and my internal card a Inprocomm IPN 2220 with neti2220 driver:

NetworkManager: <WARN> request_and_convert_scan_results(): card took too much time scanning. Get a better one.

So I think this card and/or its driver has something to do with it. On the other hand this card still works nicely in Gutsy.

However, in Hardy, when I succeed in connecting, is always after I've been connected either via cable or an external usb dongle and it drops after about 15/20 minutes.

Connecting to an encrypted network always works, but I've not tested how long it will stay connected yet.

Testing the way I did produces side effects eventually. In the end I was not able to connect to the encrypted network in any ways.

Typical warnings while trying to connect with Inprocomm:

NetworkManager: <WARN> nm_device_802_11_wireless_set_essid(): error setting ESSID to '' for device wlan0: Invalid argument
kernel: [ 4743.943573] ndiswrapper (iw_set_freq:334): setting configuration failed (C0010015)
