[Bug 272185] Re: [Intrepid] iwl3945 + iwlagn -- network-manager will not connect to a WPA EAP (Enterprise) network (disassociating by local choice (reason=3) )

[rmcd]

I seem to be able to connect if, using the CLI, I issue the command
"iwconfig wlan0 essid northwestern". Is it apparent to anyone why this
command would help NM connect?

I'm not sure the sequence matters, but if NM fails to connect automatically, (I keep getting the certificate dialog), I click
"cancel" on the dialog and run the iwconfig command. Sometimes it then connects automatically, other times I need to click on the NM icon for the connection, after which it connects. If I issue the command before I get the certificate dialog, it just connects. So far I have had no failures with this method, but I am reluctant to claim victory. I hope that others still having problems can try this out.

My previous reports are around here:

Please let me know if there's something I can try to help pin down
what's going on.

Here is a successful connection:
