Bug Description

When installing Gusty on my Dell Inspiron E1505, Network-Admin will not work with the wireless card. It's status remains on "Preparing". I can, however, connect to a wireless network by opening the terminal, and running:

sudo iwconfig eth1 NETWORKNAME
dhclient eth1

No high priority, just something to fix before the final release.
