Comment 1 Jirka Klimes 2011-05-05 08:08:55 UTC 
What is your WiFi card, driver?

/var/log/wpa_supplicant.log would be helpful.
Please see "Debugging WiFi Connections" section at http://live.gnome.org/NetworkManager/Debugging to increase log level.

Comment 4 Delicostea Daniel 2011-05-06 12:58:27 UTC 
don`t work, not important, anyway i will continue to use network service not NetworkManager, this is good only too scan and see available wlan networks, also this must be down when you try to configure and use multiple gateways, routing tables, etc...
