5720 Lowering to highest priority. Priority:
release_blocker =>
High Based on problems I've been experiencing, I think in most instances, the problem lies in a conflict between drakx-net and network manager. I HATE drakx-net, plus I have apps that depend on Network Manager to detect their connection... I wish I could just uninstall drakx-net but all the other drak tools seem to declare it as a dependency so I'm stuck with it. -_-; CC:

theamazingchiepoo You can perfectly remove at least drakx-net-applet, if you don't use it. Or just add a ~/.net_applet file with this content to prevent its launch: AUTOSTART=FALSE

doktor5000 @marja: Most of the old linked bugreports from 2011/2012/2013 should be seriously re-visited thouroughly. For those where workarounds are available, please close them and add the workaround to https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Setup_wireless_networking#known_issues_with_specific_drivers FWIW, since I've switched to networkmanager instead of net_applet, no more issues with wireless so far, and for numerous other users on the forum. Documented here: https://forums.mageia.org/en/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=5782 I can review and update it for mga5 if it should be added to our official documentation. This tracker should be updated, as the subject is quite generic and doesn't apply for the most parts anymore IMHO.

Well, there are only three bugs left in it, two of which might have gotten solved, so better to close this tracker Status:
