Comment 14 for bug 105688

just updated network manager from the synaptic package manager- now NetworkManager Applet 0.6.4 ubuntu7.

What ever i do with it it just wont connect to my network. i can select the network asks for the WEP key and at the top the signal strength bar appears. but open Firefox and I'm not connected to the internet. The only way i can connect to the network is to run

sudo vi /etc/network/interfaces

and delete all lines other then the top two (Loop back) and then enter my network details. the files now looks something like this:

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto ra1
iface ra1 inet dhcp
wireless-essid wireless
wireless-key **********

After doing this i restarted networking

sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart

Every time i switch the computer on i then have to restart networking once it has loaded otherwise it hasn't connected! yes ok i made it easy by creating a launcher to "start the internet" but IMHO needs fixing ASAP!!
