Bug Description

Binary package hint: network-manager

After upgrading on Oct 6, my ipw2200 card can no longer connect to my WPA access point. It can connect to an open access port. The previous update was Oct 4.

Since the update, it will continuously loop on the prompt for a WPA passphrase.

Network Manager version 0.6.5-0ubuntu15
wpasupplicant version 0.6.0+0.5.8-0ubuntu1
kernel 2.6.22-13-386

This bug can be closed. The problem seems to be with the access point. Resetting the access point seems to have resolved the problem. It just happened to be a coincidence that this happened at the same time as the upgrade.
