NetworkManager Cannot Connect to Wireless Network

[John Frankish <j-frankish@slb.com>]

Hi,

I just installed NetworkManager and started to use it with wired/wireless connections.

Things work fine with the wired connection, but although NetworkManager displays several available wireless networks, it will not connect.

The problem is that when I select the available network to join, NetworkManager diplays a dialogue "Wireless Network Authentication Required" and requests a "WEP 128-bit Passphrase". Entering the "128 bits 26 hex digits" code for my router does not work, I believe I need to enter a "WEP 40/128-bit Key", but when I select this, the "Connect" button is greyed out and I cannot enter the code.

Any ideas whey trying to enter a "WEP 40/128-bit Key" is not possible with NetworkManager?

Regards
John
