Re: Only Worked Once...

["S D" <sd codewarrior gmail com>]

I'm beginning to think that the problem is related to the gnome keyring. I uninstalled pam_keyring and then removed any keys via System -> Preferences -> System -> Keyring Manager. I rebooted and attemped to connect via the NetworkManager. Prior to asking for my WPA password it asked for my keyring password; instead of entering it I selected "deny" after which I was asked for my WPA password. Upon entering my WPA password I was in!!! The problem is that for the life of me I can't seem to reproduce this work-around. I've rebooted several times and have tried the above steps but to know avail. I'm so close I can taste it but I just can't get it working quite right. 

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks for your response. I ran dmesg and noticed the following line in the response:

ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): ath0: link is not ready

Do you have any idea how this can be corrected?

the problem may be in the dhcdbd not receiving the ip address. try doing a manual connect after you've stopped networkmanager and dhcdbd. try connecting with wpa_supplicant command line and after it autenticates then run a dhcpclient. if you get the ip address then the problem is likely to be in the dhcdbd not getting the ip address from dhclient. you have then to kill the ip address you've got before and run dhcdbd in verbose mode to see if it gets the ip and to see its logs. if it gets the ip then the problem is with networkmanager not authenticating correctly and you'd have to look in its logs to see what configuration it uses when calling wpa_supplicant.
