["Christopher M. Penalver" <christopher.m.penalver@xxxxxxxxx>]

jerrylamos, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc5

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  NM fails to connect Wi-Fi; dhclient works -- Intel Centrino Wireless-N
  1000 iwlwifi

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Wireless WPA fails to "automatically connect" even though "enable
  wireless" is on when rebooting.

  Systems Settings Network  is blank where it should have the network
  name.   That's a bug.

  Correctly says wired network is unplugged.

  Network Applet Edit Connections says wired connection last used 5
  minutes ago.  Has not been plugged in since yesterday.  That's a bug.

  Network Applet Edit Connections says wireless connection last used 2
  hours ago.  Not true, last used 5 minutes ago.  That's a bug.

  Selecting Network Applet Edit Connections Wireless Security tab should
  ask for pathword authorization to set/change password.  It does not.
  That's a bug.

  What the Wireless Security tab does is just sit there for a couple
  minutes then (60 to 120 seconds) the menu appears.  All the correct
  data is already there.  Save, close.  No changes made.

  Wireless WPA still does not connect even though it was running before
  reboot.  "connect automatically" does not. That's a bug.

  Systems Settings Network still shows no network name while network applit edit connections shows the correct name.
  Why don't they both show the same network name?  That's a bug.

  After 20 minutes, it suddenly does show the network name.  Some time
  after that the wireless WPA connects.

  No new information was used.  It already had network name, security
  type, and  password when it rebooted.  "cinnect automatically" does
  not.  That's a bug.

  Any clue what to do to "automatically connect"?  This is a
  "Regression" since Precise works very usably on the same hardware.

  Jerry
