I sincerely hope all those suffering with wireless connection issues see this post and have success with it.
I have been having problems with my wireless connection for months now since switching to Ubuntu. Like some people, my laptop would connect occasionally. When it wouldn't, I just kept getting a message on the screen asking to enter the WPA passphrase.
The fix? I changed the security on the router from WPA and WPA2 to just WPA2. And TKIP and AES to AES only. For whatever reason changing the cipher settings works.
Prior to doing this I've tried nearly every fix listed on the forum and I can't believe the fix was so simple
I am using Ubuntu version 10.04 Lucid Lynx
