Description of problem: As described in "Bug 1." on the given page, NetworkManager would sometimes receive DHCPNAK from the DHCP server, after which it will consistently fail to connect to the access point in question. Lease files need to be removed before it would succeed Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): NetworkManager-0.6.5-9.fc8.x86_64 How reproducible: Sometimes (depends on hypothesis being valid) Steps to Reproduce: 1. Get DHCP server to return DHCPNAK 2. Try telling NM to reconnect Actual results: NM would fail repeatedly Expected results: NM should succeed Additional info: I have occasionally noticed this problem since FC6 or F7. On the same machines, though, openSUSE (tested F7 and openSUSE 10.2 on one, F8t2 and openSUSE 10.3b3 on another) has been able to connect much more reliably. On one really bad wireless router, F7 would fail to connect many times more than oSUSE, but the problem is less apparent with well-behaved DHCP servers.
Seems not to be a problem anymore.
