Bug Description

Binary package hint: network-manager

NetworkManager hasn't yet worked for me. The furthest I've gotten is to have it assign an erroneous IP for my wireless connection.

NetworkManager assigns IP address 169.254.200.231, broadcast 169.254.255.255 to my wireless interface, despite my router responding to the DHCP request with 192.168.1.104.

[4294689.348000] ipw2100: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2100 Network Driver, 1.1.4
[4294689.348000] ipw2100: Copyright(c) 2003-2005 Intel Corporation
...
[4294690.572000] ipw2100: Detected Intel PRO/Wireless 2100 Network Connection

The network is unencrypted. Here's what I had in /etc/network/interfaces for my wireless connection -- which has worked for me for a long time -- before commenting it out so I could try NetworkManager:

iface eth1 inet dhcp
        wireless-essid craig

auto eth1

From the latest updates to Dapper this morning (May 18)...

Setting up network-manager (0.6.2-0ubuntu7) ...
...
Setting up network-manager-gnome (0.6.2-0ubuntu7) ...

Also have wpasupplicant installed, as I found that suggested in ubuntuforums, even though I have no encryption on the wireless network.

Here's all of what I'm seeing in /var/log/syslog.

You manually configured eth1's essid so n-m won't use that interface.

Changed in network-manager:
status: Unconfirmed → Rejected

Well, I got another machine to try, but it's a fresh install of 7.04. NetworkManager from the start. Works fine, even handling VPN connections, which is nice.
