Comment 19 for bug 339313

I can also confirm the behaviour that Julien posted: it is still an issue even after release. Additionally, it seems that an extra network connection appears on the list of networks each time you do this, and it is completely impossible to use an existing listed connection. This of course makes "Connect Automatically" useless.

Using Kubuntu Jaunty, open network with WEP key. Same whether you use the passphrase or the 26 character hex equivalent.
