Title:
  Ubuntu 11.10, very slow to register to a wireless network when using
  WPA

Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When connecting to a wireless network, in either Gnome 3 GUI or Ubuntu
  Unity, I have found that when connecting to a wireless network using
  WPA, the connections hangs, saying 'connecting'

  I am asked for the WPA password several times, in what appears to be
  in a gnome window followed by a unity ambiance window.

  In other words, a window pops up asking for a WPA password, followed
  by a second different window asking for the same thing.

  It has always been slow to connect, but since the addition of Gnome3
  shell, it now asks twice.

  However, it will try to connect for about 5-10 mins. Once connected,
  it then works fine.

  If this helps, my spec:
