Comment 0 for bug 278190

The wireless network can be seen, and occasionally connects after a cold boot. Most of the time network-manager complains that the WEP key is not correct repeatedly and refuses to get a DHCP lease.

Beta release updated 4/10/08 on a gen 2 MacBook Pro (atheros wifi) connecting to a BT home hub with WEP 64 bit encryption (configuration as shipped). No previous problems with Kubuntu 7.10 and the same hardware using self-compiled drivers.

Linux xxxxx-01 2.6.27-4-generic #1 SMP Wed Sep 24 01:29:06 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux

NetworkManager 0.7.0.

03:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5418 802.11abgn Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01)
