font-family:Arial'>I have rarely used network manager in F9 or in previous
versions. One of my goals is to get wireless to work with our infrastructure which
uses RADIUS and PEAP. Over the last couple of years, I have read and read and
tried and tried as I had time to do so but have never been able to get a
connection to our wireless. Before last week, I primarily used WiFi radar as
the means to connect to a non-secure wireless device but with F9, it got flakier
and flakier. I have no idea what made me try it but last week I tried enabling Network
manager’s control over wireless.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>In short, it is awesome! Inside our office, it immediately
popped up asking for the required credentials and BANG! It connected. Ditto
with every wireless hotspot I have tried. Also, it is much easier to explain
how to use to an end user than the methods I was using. Ironically, I also dual
boot many of these machines and the Network manager means of connection is much
easier and more intuitive than the native control offered by XP and/or the
utilities that ship with the NICS/laptops (Dell for instance).<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
