Hi,
I am using NM 6.4 as is shipped in Ubuntu 7.04 - if I need to upgrade to
the latest CVS solve this, just say and I will do so.
The issue I am facing is this: There are two SSIDs I can connect to in my
school:
1)eduroam
2)eduroam-simple
1) is WPA (WPA-enterprise) protected, however, it is possible to connect
to it using NM manager after filling in my login data.
2) is unprotected and uses some kind of web authentication, works like a
breeze with NM.
The problem is, that 1) is more userfirendly (and secure as well, I think)
since I do not need to fill any password after NM creates a connection -
and that is the reason I would like to use it. However, NM succesfully
creates a connection only after I log in to my system (as it tries to
connect to the network I was connected to last time). When it for some
reason (like bad signal) fails, NM falls back to 2), but when I try t make
connect to 1) (via the nm-applet), it asks me for a password - but I have
already filled that in!
Is it supposed to behave like this or is this no longer present in current
CVS?
If any additional info is needed, just ask, I will be happy to provide it.
