Ubuntu 10.10 will not connect to Wireless N Access Points

**apastuszak** · October 8th, 2010

I have wireless G and N access points in my house. The N network is set to allow only N connections. I have a Lenovo laptop with a Intel Wireless N chip in it, and after one of the 10.10 updates it stopped connecting to my N access point. The G access point works just fine.

The logs for the Wireless N access point alway show "Bas Password." I am having the same problem with either NetworkManager or wicd.

Anyone alse seen this or know of something that will get me back on the wireless N access point?

I'm having this problem too. I've set my router to N only and I can't connect.

I feel like I may be having a similar problem on Ubuntu 12.10. At home I can connect to the wireless with no problem. At work, I cannot connect to the access point with highest signal, which I find using nm-tool:

Code:

Infra, 00:24:6C:80:D7:40, Freq 2462 MHz, Rate 54 Mb/s, Strength 64

I know that, because when I boot in Mac OS x, it connects just fine. I tried specifying the MAC address of the access point, but network manager refuses to connect to it. Here is the sys log .
My card is

Code:

Broadcom Corporation BCM4331 802.11a/b/g/n

Can anyone help?
