I am running OpenSuse 11.3 with KDE4, using iwl3945 wireless driver. Several times in the last couple of months the NetworkManager refused to connect to unsecured networks. It's not every time - for example, it is fine with my router at home when I put it in insecure mode. But it would refuse to work at critical points when I have no other ways to connect - e.g., in a hotel or at a conference. I can't tell if this is networkmanager or if this is the applet problem. What I see in the applet is that I choose the SSID to connect to, and it pops out a "connect" dialog, but it does not fill in that SSID - instead, it uses an SSID from some other network I used previously. I fix the SSID to the correct thing, but then the connection is not established, with no obvious error messages. Not sure how to debug this, especially given that it happens in places where I usually don't have the time to spend in debugging (like during conferences), nor an alternative connection to google for symptoms. But these are also the exact times when I really need the connection :( It happened to me today, and I am attaching my dmesg & network manager log. Neither shows anything that I can see as problematic that I can see. Is there more that I can do to figure this out? Myrosia
