Title:
  Can't connect to Wifi network secured with long PSK

Status in the base for Ubuntu mobile products:
  Confirmed
Status in indicator-network package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Device: BQ Aquaris E5.4 Ubuntu Edition

  I just got this device and wanted to connect to my WPA2 WiFi network
  which happens to have a 54 characters-long PSK. However, after
  entering my password (which naturally takes a little while) and
  clicking on "connect", it just simply returns me to the overview of
  WiFi networks near me. No error message.

  The following askubuntu.com questions appear to be related to this problem:
  http://askubuntu.com/questions/597333/get-wifi-password-into-ubuntu-touch
  http://askubuntu.com/questions/306734/unable-to-connect-to-secured-wi-fi-from-nexus-7-running-ubuntu-touch-13-04

  I have enabled developer mode and edited the network manager file in
  /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ using adb shell. After that, I
  was able to connect to my network.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Set up a WPA2 network and give it a long password
  2. Click on your SSID on the list
  3. Enter your password
  4. Click "Connect".

  Expected result:
  Connected to the WiFi network

  Actual result:
  You see the list again and no indications that you are connected to the network. You aren't connected to the network.
