I am on GM now, and pretty much the same behavior occurs. I still have to modprobe -r and modprobe again on the ipw3945 module. On my other laptop (using madwifi with atheros chipset), I have the exact same config for NM (on GM as well). Works fine. a ps reveals that wpa_supplicant is running once I input the key. Here, I input the key, it says, after stage 2 is complete: Activation (eth1/wireless): disconnected during association, asking for new key. eth1: link timed out eth1: link timed out etc... I do not have any MAC restrictions on, just that 128 WEP key. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

On boot, if I was succesfully connected to my network (with WPA PSK) then it connects. If not, it doesn't. If I am connected and I try to reconnect, it keeps asking me for the password but never gets past stage 2 of the connection process. This works fine under ifup. The only thing that works is modprobe -r ipw3945; modprobe ipw3945 I have attached my Network Manager and message logs while I did the following: - boot (without prev successful connection, and with no key stored in the keyring manager) (FAILED) - login and try to connect (FAILED) - click connect to other wireless network (SUCCEEDED) - click on the network to reconnect (FAILED) - delete key and click connect to other wireless network (FAILED) - delete key and click connect to other wireless network (FAILED) - reload ipw3945 module with modprobe - click connect to other network (SUCCEEDED) Not in the logs, but reloading ipw3945 and clicking on the network also succeeds. Also, there is an error from dhcpd about not understanding the lease time - I changed that on my router and it didn't affect anything Occassionally, I also get these errors in my log: getafix kernel: CCMP: decrypt failed: STA=00:12:a9:cb:66:40 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

Tambet? The reason why this this changed with 10.2 is most probably that on 10.1, ipw2200 was unloaded by default on suspend. This in not the case for 10.2 anymore. To reload the module again, you can add it to /etc/pm/config (variable SUSPEND_MODULES), but it shouldn't be necessary. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

I had the same problems plus some others and I resolved upgrading ipw3945d and the ipw3945-ucode (http://bughost.org/ipw3945/)

See my bug report #259005 for additional info.

Antenore.

I have already upgraded to: Microcode: ipw3945-ucode-1.14.2 Regulatory daemon: ipw3945d-1.7.22 also, I have upgraded to: ieee80211-1.2.15 The ieee upgrade helped with stability, but my connection (WPA personal) still goes every now and again, and then it asks me for the password, and won't get past that.

OK - I installed the new ipw3945 packages and rebooted. The issue is exactly the same as before, in order to reconnect to a network, I need to modprobe -r and then modprobe the driver again. Full log attached. Also, I compiled my own ieee80211 driver (version 1.2.15) - before I did this, I still had the above problem, but when my network did connect, it would drop after any heavy use. i have since tried installing ieee80211 version 1.2.16, but it complains during compilation, and I don't have enough experience to figure out what is wrong with it. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
