    Trouble setting up wireless connections

    The problem is simply that the connection fails to authenticate with my WAP (specifically WPA2 personal) even though I enter the correct password.

    I am using NetworkManager to connect, and my hard wire connections are working fine.

    I do have wpa_supplicant installed and it is using the "out of the box" configuration.

    I ended up just getting rid of wpa_supplicant and NetworkManager and just installed Wicd which is working fairly well now.
