Hello BUGabundo,

I can't connect to my LaFonera router but my encryption is WPA2 / AES
¿Can you try with these parameters?

Thank you

I'm now on Jaunty too and it still does not work. I guess my bug report is different then.

have you tried to tweak frequency/channel used by the AP? Also try to use "g" instead of "n" network.

i don't see why latest NM might have fixed something. Most likely a driver fix then. Lets not bother if all is fine ;).
