How can I get NetworkManagerInfo to prompt me for a WEP key?? I can't
for the life of me get this to work, and I REALLY want to....
I have started /etc/init.d/NetworkManager, and started
NetworkManagerInfo. My first problem is that I can't get
NetworkManagerInfo to deal with a wireless network that has WEP turned
on as well as doesn't broadcast its ESSID. I tried to manually get it
to work by putting the ESSID in, but it doesn't ask me for a WEP key, so
it's unable to associate and fails.
So I reconfigured my wireless AP to broadcast its ESSID and now
NetworkManagerInfo shows that network in its menu, with a lock icon in
it, but it still doesn't prompt me for my WEP key!!
What am I doing wrong???
