Comment 92 for bug 34902

Confirmed. I use CNet Wireless-G PCI 54 Mbps 802.11g, WPA/AES/WPA2 which is rt2500 based. Networks are detected in network-manager, and I am able to connect to non-encrypted networks. However, connecting to encrypted networks freezes the computer totally (hard reboot is the only option, ctrl+alt+backspace does nothing). Seems not to be a network-manager bug, this also happens when using the old method of connecting to the network, using "network" in the system->administration menu. a sudo ifup wlan0 freezes the computer in the same manner.
