Hi,

I have different hardware now so I can't help you much but a few things I did notice when I had this problem. I think that one problem is to do with network manager not raising a dialog to ask for the WPA key, I used another network manager (wicd) to get around this issue.

However, even with wicd I was unable to connect to the network. It seems that there is some problem with the wpa supplicant program. What worked for me (albeit intermittently) was using wpa_supplicant from the command line to connect, however, as i said I have different hardware now and I was only using that solution for a small while.

My suggestion would be to work out how to use wpa_supplicant and give that a go.

Cheers
