[Bug 893632] Re: Secondary WiFi adapter fails to connect to wireless network

 

** 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.

  I've tried turning off the built-in adapter (in case this 'confuses' the
  USB adapter), but this turns off  both adapters (i.e. it turns of WiFi
  networking off completely).
