Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?

Trying to install jessie on an nx6110 (Intel PRO 2915ABG Calexico2 wireless card).

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

I got to the "Configure the network" screen. The "Select the wireless network" screen shows me all the wireless transmitters around me (approx 15), I choose my wireless network. At the next screen, I choose "WPA/WPA2 PSK". At the next screen ("WPA/WPA2 passphrase?"), I enter my WPA2 passphrase. 

   * What was the outcome of this action?

The installer immediately sends me back to the "Choose your wireless network" screen.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

I expected to be able to continue on with the installation
