Wireless Authentication Required

Keeps popping up like I don’t know what my password is but I made my password easy so I could remember yet it still keeps popping up it’s really annoying I can get Ethernet but not wireless on my Asus EeePC 1005HA. Why does it do this it never used to until recently, I’m almost temped to uninstall OpenSUSE 11.4 even though I love it if it’s going to be this much of a headache.

What were you using before 11.4?
What type of encryption?

I was always using 11.4 also WPA I believe.

Create a new user login and test it
Does it have the same issue?

Yeah same issue it baffles me I can usually debunk things like this on my own but this one is just a head scratcher.

Did you use the wallet? It sounds as if you did not.

Yes, that’s what I meant. When I replied, I couldn’t see your sig and did not
know you are using Gnome.

Look at the info in /var/log/NetworkManager. That may say why your secret is
being rejected.

I don’t seem to have the directory I’ve searched but can’t find it btw I’m using LXDE

I guess that you are using ifup, not NetworkManager.

In that case, you need to make wpa_supplicant log the data. Start it manually
using the same arguments as yielded by ‘ps ax’, but remove any “-B” switch and
add “-ddd”. That will log with the most verbosity.
