On my wireless laptop (9.10) I've been testing with NM (I normally use
wicd, but thought I'd give NM a try) & only have wpa2 set up. I can test
without a little later & also w/wicd. But I also use a fixed IP as I
seem to recall that I was having DHCP issues as well (I'll try reverting
shortly, but that system is currently in use by another user). Can you
temporarily set to a fixed IP to see if it's a DHCP issue?
