Comment 50 for bug 446394

With latest updates from NM trunk ppa I was not able to connect to WPA protected network

I've created the network on first computer with "WPA & WPA2 Personal" password. Creation was successful. But when I tried to connect to it from another computer, I could not enter the password (see screenshot).

Then I tried to create a profile for the network on second computer. It gave the ability to set WPA password. But connection attempts were futile:
