Network Manager can't connect but command line is fine

Problem: Network Manager can see Wireless networks but can't connect to them.

I have a Broadcom BCM4312 chipset. I got the drivers installed through the rpmfusion repository. By following this guide, I was able to connect and get online through command line, but only after disabling Network Manager.

Question: If I can get Wireless to work through command line, what do I need to do to get it to work through the Network Manager utility?



I'm running Fedora 12 x64

I don't know anything about your wireless card, but let me point out that you haven't explained how you tried to configure the connection in Network Manager. Did the card even show up under the "Hardware" tab?
