IIRC, I think I have read somewhere that NM does not invoke the regular 
wpa_supplicant, but has its own internal version, and it completely ignores 
the wpa_supplicant.conf file.

I remember that at some point I used the old network service to start my 
wireless network, and I used to configure and use wpa_supplicant. When I 
switched to NM, this became unnecessary, as NM did everything itself. Since 
then I typically disable the wpa_supplicant (chkconfig wpa_supplicant off) and 
just let NM take care of everything.

So, you want to forget that .conf file, get into the NM GUI and configure wpa 
credentials from there. Worksforme (btw, I'm still on F14, not sure if any of 
this changed for F15).

But anyway, we are hijacking the thread from the OP here... ;-)

HTH, :-)
