==== DHCP problems ====
 +
In neighborhood view I see my old BEFWS11 Linksys access point, I click to connect, I get a password dialog, I enter my 128-bit WEP key.  After a long pause I get the dialog again.
 +
<tt>/var/log/messages</tt> suggests that NetworkManager is connected successfully to my AP:
 +
  Stage 2 of 5 (Device Configure) successful. Connected to wireless network '''mynet'''
 +
 +
but then it seems to fail in DHCP access
 +
  avahi-daemon(1932): Registering new address record for 'nn:nn' on eth0.*.
 +
  ...
 +
  NetworkManager: <info> Device 'eth0' DHCP transaction took too long (>45s), stopping it.
 +
and I get the dialog again.
