Hi - am having wireless connection probs.
Have the trawled this site and others for help but can't figure it out.
Probably doing something stupid...
I have a wireless router running wpa2 which is being used fine by a variety of devices.
I have tried 2 machines now running ubuntu 12 (and tried another simmilar distro) and I can't connect.
Wired connection is fine.
It detects the wireless network but wont establish a connection.
I've tried disabling security, picking different wireless frequencies.
any help gratefully received.
here's the syslog with networkmanager messages:
