https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu-eee/+question/47126

Hello!

I recently installed Ubuntu EEE on my little Asus EEEPC 701. I really enjoy working with this nice OS. Unfortunately, the WLAN is not running. I can see my AP in the NetworkManager. The EEE realizes that the AP wants to have a WPA-PSK passphrase. But it fails to connect. The logs say something like "disconnected during association, asking for new key". I also tried a password that had only letters and numbers: the same problem again. It seems to me that the AP does not accept the password, because the same happens when I want to connect with a wrong password.

Can anyone help me?

Here is my /var/log/syslog for reference:
