wireless connection problems

[pkaplan1]

I haven't had wireless problems on kubuntu for several years until Lucid.
I did a fresh install and knetwork manager will not automatically connect to 
my LAN, although I can manually start the connection thru the manager.  Even 
after the connecting, I keep getting a dialog asking for the password (which 
is already entered correctly.

I used wicd under Karmic and this seems to be a total bust under Lucid.  It 
rejects all attempts to connect, telling me that my password is incorrect 
(which it isn't).

Have solutions to either network manager been posted?
