If the network is password-protected, Ubuntu will display a window called \window{Wireless Network Authentication Required} as it tries to make a connection. This means that a valid password is required to make a connection. This is what the screen should look like:

584.

Enter your wireless network password.

585.

If you know the password, enter it in the \textfield{Password} field and then click on the \button{Connect} button. As you type the password, it will be obscured from view to prevent others from reading the password as you type it. To verify the characters you are entering for the password, you can view the password by selecting the \checkbox{Show Password} check box. Then, you can make the password obscure again by deselecting the \checkbox{Show password} check box. Once the password is entered, click on the \button{Connect} button. The \application{NetworkManager} icon in the top panel will animate as Ubuntu attempts to connect to the network. If the connection is successful, the icon will change to display a signal meter. An on-screen notification message will also appear informing you that the connection was successful.

586.

If you entered the password incorrectly, or if it doesn't match the correct password (for example if it has recently been changed and you have forgotten), \application{NetworkManager} will make another attempt to connect to the network, and the \window{Wireless Network Authentication Required} window will re-appear so that you can re-type the password. You can hit the \button{Cancel} button to abort the connection. If you do not know the correct password, you may need to call your \acronym{ISP}'s customer support line or contact your network administrator.

587.

Once you have successfully established a wireless connection, Ubuntu will store these settings (including the password) to make it easier to connect to this same wireless network in the future. You may also be prompted to select a \emph{keyring} password here. The keyring stores passwords in one place so you can access them all in the future by remembering just the keyring password.

Connecting to a saved wireless network

589.

Ubuntu will automatically try to connect to a wireless network in range if it has the settings saved. This works on both open and secure wireless networks.

590.

If you have numerous wireless networks in range that are saved on your computer, Ubuntu may choose to connect to one network while you may want to connect to another network. To remedy this action, click on the \application{NetworkManager} icon. A list of wireless networks will appear along with their signal meters. Simply click on the network to which you wish to connect, and Ubuntu will disconnect from the current network and attempt to connect to the one you have selected.

591.

If the network is secure and Ubuntu has the details for this network saved, Ubuntu will automatically connect. If the details for this network connection are not saved, are incorrect, or have changed, then you will be prompted to enter the network password again. If the network is open (no password required), all of this will happen automatically and the connection will be established.
