Title:
  Cannot connect to wireless network in 12.04

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  Confirmed

  Incomplete

Bug description:
  My wireless network is listed in Network Manager, but upon entering
  the password it tries to connect and then re-prompts for a password. I
  can connect fine in Ubuntu 10.10/Fedora 16.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Select wireless network in Network Manager (802.11g with WPA2 in my case)
  2. Watch the network icon animate while it tries to connect
  3. Dialog box re-prompts for password

  My wireless card details:
