** Description changed:

- I have a built-in wifi adapter and a brand new USB wifi adapter plugged
- into my netbook. Both are found by network-manager and both can "see" my
- home wifi network. However, only the built-in adapter is able to
- connect. When trying to connect with the USB adapter, I am prompted for
- the passphrase, but after a while, I am prompted for the passphrase a
- second time. Then again, after a while I am prompted for the passphrase
- a third time. Then it fails, saying the network has been disconnected.

  WiFi networking off completely).
