Alexander, the information above was clear to me. I added the source, upgraded, and am now running the development version.

Unfortunately, this has not corrected the problem. What I see a very long delay where Network Manager's blue spinner spins for a very long time. The lower ball is green but the upper does not change. After a while, it times out and I get the same password/connect dialog box as described above. When I click "Connect", the connection comes up. Since the correct password is already populated, I only need to click "Connect". Nothing additional needs to be entered.

My Access point is a Linksys using WPA2 Personal.

In my /var/log/wpa_supplicant.log, I see the following messages...

-- SNIP --

I changed the name of my accesspoint and the last part of the MAC address. Beyond that it is a cut-paste.

I have had a few cases (before this update) where it would never let me connect at all. The dialog would continue to come up over and over. Log out/in would correct this.

Please let me know if I can provide any additional information. I am setup to take any updates you provide so feel free to use me for any testing/validation.
