Had a similar issue. Haven't found a solution yet.

The USB WiFi adapter was working fine in F27 but after upgrading to F28 I can not longer connect to the same SSID I was connected to before, or any for that manner. I am using a Realtek RTL8191SU based adapter that has worked well for me for years.

NetworkManager just keeps asking for the passphrase like I entered it wrong. I cleared the saved SSIDs out and when they repopulated I tried it again but still the same error. I went to the command line to see if it would give me any addition information and here is what I got:

# nmcli device wifi connect MY_SSID password "MY_PASSPHRASE"
Error: Connection activation failed: (7) Secrets were required, but not provided.

Then I tried it with go old wpa_supplicant:

# wpa_supplicant -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/badger.conf -i wlp4s0u2
Successfully initialized wpa_supplicant
nl80211: Driver does not support authentication/association or connect commands
nl80211: deinit ifname=wlp4s0u2 disabled_11b_rates=0
wlp4s0u2: Failed to initialize driver interface

I though maybe it was an issue with the Realtek driver so i broke out my TP Link adapter that uses a different chipset and found NetworkManger doesn't even see it.

Did I miss something in my upgrade or settings that changed?
