You're sure the network is up? Reboot the router? The usual > suspects... I didn't do a complete reboot - I tend to only do that for kernels - but I have now. Now, when I click on the network icon, my network is not listed. If I click on the icon and select Connect to Other Network it offers me my own network, but follows it up with a message "KNetworkManager Wireless Network Disappeared". 'iwlist wlan0 scanning' tells me that there are no scan results. I know the router is behaving itself, as this laptop is using the same wireless connection. Basically, knetworkmanager seems to now be behaving the same way as NetworkManager-gnome :-( Anne -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
