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.

i assume its a ipw3945 chipset. In this case this is a driver bug, which is dealt with in bug 128360
