Hello, I have a Samsung Q45 with a Intel Pro Wireless 3945 Card using the packaged drivers in fiesty. The system is with fully updated packages. I can connect to none WPA networks just fine however when I attempt to connect to a network protected with WPA network manager appears to hang (the animation still continues but nothing ever happens). Can anybody please offer some advice on how to troubleshoot this issue?
