[Bug 1393662] Re: Wi-Fi authentication timed out after upgrade to 14.10

 

It seems I can only connect to the open networks with the dongle. The
build in BCM will not connect to an open access point.

Title:
  Wi-Fi authentication timed out after upgrade to 14.10

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

Bug description:
  After upgrading to 14.10 I can no longer connect to any wifi network
  that has WPA authentication regardless of the wifi adapter used (built
  in BCM4331 and USB dongle RTL8188C). The same setup was working fine
  before the upgrade. I am able to connect to open networks, which I
  tested by tethering to a wifi hotspot on my phone. USB tethering also
  works. I have confirmed that the wifi password is correct and have
  even removed and added the network. THis is on a 2012 Mac Mini.

  Expected behaviour: The wifi adapter should have connected to my
  network

  Actual behaviour: The wifi adapter is not able to connect. 'dmesg' is
  full of the following error messages:
