Maverick - Wireless broken on ASUS EEE PC 901

[m4r35n357]

When booting from the netbook USB, there are two wireless connection stages:

the first appears at the "TRY/INSTALL" selection screen, and after supplying the keyring password, the connection appears to succeed.

the second appears on the desktop, after selecting "TRY"; the keyring dialogue appears & seems to work, but then the network login dialogue pops up, and refuses to connect.

Both my Acer machines connect to the same AP under Maverick and the EEE PC works in Lucid.

Can anyone else confirm/deny this problem?

Ian.

I have an eee 901 that I just put 10.10 on. I used the beta of the desktop version, and it went ok, no problems with wifi. Try a wired connection and get all the upgrades, it may have already been fixed.

Older versions of the kernel had problems with the wifi chip in the 901 (I couldn't get wifi to work at all in 10.04) so make sure you're running the very latest kernel.
