Welcome to IWETHEY!

New I hate wireless...
Its such a pain in the butt!
New What I tell my clients is:
"Wherever you can use wire, use wire. Where you just can't use wire, use wireless."
New Yep. Including the peripherals.
New Even with Apple hardware!
I have an Apple Airport Extreme with Wireless.

I cannot tell you how much of a pain it is to even hook up Apple Hardware to it.

Though my Android Phone see's it just fine and connects and uses it perfectly, my daughter's Apple Mac Book Pro, flipping between home and school (school is Windows based kinda stuff) just wreaks havoc for the poor thing. Even with Lion on it.

But, most of the time, once you whaap it a few times it realizes its talking to an Apple router again and magically works.

Now my IBM T61 with Debian Sid on it, has no problems what so ever... I'm using NetworkManager for all my connections (Wireless, Wired, Broadband, CDMA, and VPN over those). It works just fine.

Of course, that is me... not someone else.

         Re: Ubuntu netwrok manager stopped working for wifi - (mvitale) - (31)
             Mysteriously fixed - (drook) - (30)
                 wpa_supplicant is below network-manager - (scoenye) - (1)
                     Could actually be that - (drook)
                 DAMMIT! Stopped working again. - (drook) - (27)
                     Try wicd instead? - (Another Scott) - (1)
                         That's not even seeing the networks - (drook)
                     I'll bet it's related to this. - (Another Scott) - (24)
                         Shouldn't be. (Some things to try inside) - (scoenye) - (23)
                             Thanks for the correction. -NT - (Another Scott)
                             I hate wireless... - (folkert) - (3)
                                 What I tell my clients is: - (Andrew Grygus) - (2)
                                     Yep. Including the peripherals. -NT - (scoenye) - (1)
                                         Even with Apple hardware! - (folkert)
                             Well ... - (drook) - (17)
                                 Does the problem go away with static IPs? -NT - (Another Scott)
                                 DHCP is probably a red herring - (scoenye) - (15)
                                     Nope, no DHCPOFFER - (drook) - (14)
                                         Static IP must be on the laptop - (scoenye) - (13)
                                             Doesn't even show up on the scan - (drook) - (12)
                                                 Did you see other networks in the area? - (scoenye) - (11)
                                                     Cycled the router and it connects now - (drook) - (10)
                                                         Glad that's sorted... - (scoenye) - (9)
                                                             Been thinking about flashing this one - (drook) - (8)
                                                                 Stay away from Cisco's SOHO stuff... - (folkert) - (7)
                                                                     Forgot to include the quote I found - (drook)
                                                                     People need to be more active in returning crap. - (static)
                                                                     There have been a lot of changes. - (hnick) - (4)
                                                                         Ripe market for "Apple-fying" - (drook) - (3)
                                                                             I'd agree with that. - (hnick)
                                                                             WiFi protected setup? - (scoenye) - (1)
                                                                                 That's worse than WEP. - (static)
