I am referencing this to 
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/78037

I am also using an rt 8180 card.

I have a similar problem with kwifimanager and knetworkmanager.
And kwlan also does not work for me.

For wlassistant to work it requires network-manager.
wlassistant does not have a dependency on network-manager, but it I
think it should.

Please try the manual procedure suggessted in bug 78037

sudo ifconfig [interface] down
sudo iwconfig [interface] essid [essid] key [key]
sudo ifconfig [interface] up
sudo dhclient3 [interface]

then try knetworkmanager

Also note you can use wlassistant to establish a wifi internet
connection once. Then use knetworkmanager after the interface has been
reset by wlassistant.


======================
Manual work arounds including manually resetting the wifi interface or using wlassistant to reset the interface. Are NOT a bug fix!
