    I can't connect to WPA wireless networks

    I just got my wireless card to work in Hardy following Alex's instructions in the Broadcom wireless setup for Hardy (step by step).

    I can now connect but only to unsecured networks - when I try to connect to my WPA network, Network Manager just spins, never connecting to showing any green dots or blue bars. WPA_Supplicant is installed...

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks.

    Configure your WPA_SUPPLICANT files

    or

    Most practical, use WICD network manager. Just install the WICD. Most of the time it solve the problem.

    Try to downgrade NetworkManager to the version 0.6.5, which comes with ubuntu 7.10

    In my case it is solved problems with connection to the secure networks.
