With a recent update on my Ubuntu 12.10 laptop, wireless connection is no
longer working with NetworkManager. It is working when using wpa_supplicant
directly. The nm-applet indicates 'device not ready' for the Wireless
Networks. Attached is the syslog upon inserting the wireless driver module,
which is brcmsmac. Not sure if the state change below correlates to the
nm-applet status.

NetworkManager[1121]:<info>  (wlan0): device state change: unmanaged ->
unavailable (reason 'managed') [10 20 2]

'unavailable' could mean a couple things:

1) supplicant isn't running or can't be contacted via D-Bus

Hi Dan,

Thanks for explaining. 1) seems to be the issue. 'ps -ae | grep wpa' did not return anything. I decided to remove and install wpa_supplicant. Sometimes the helpdesk approach works ;-)

Regards,
Arend
