This bug has been fixed a long time ago.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load openSUSE 11.3
2. Try to connect to a WPA2 wireless network with the rt2860sta driver

Have you made sure you are actually using the rt2860sta driver? On my machine
this driver is loaded but the rt2800pci driver (which does not yet work with
RT2860 hardware) attaches to it by default and needs to be blacklisted.

If the same fix is applied in 11.2 and 11.3, then the behavior isn't the same
between the two. 11.2 works out of the box. 11.3 does not. I did verify with
lsmod that rt2860sta was being loaded as the driver. I did not try blacklisting
the rt2800pci driver, but I ended up reinstalling 11.2 so I can't easily test
it right this second.

I'd still consider this a bug/regression given that the hardware does not work
out of the box as expected in 11.3, where it does in 11.2.


Actual Results:
The connection will timeout every time while trying to authenticate

Have you tried connecting without NetworkManager, i.e. manually or with YaST?

I used NetworkManager first, and then I tried manually as well with iwconfig.
