Thread: Wifi permission issues


my system76 netbook has been having issue wifi permissions. computer being loaned sister, , created account her. account standard user account, not have change permissions. without discernable reason, wifi won't connect network @ random times. ubuntu 11.10 running, gives following error:

by default, new user not have permission connect wireless , ethernet networks.

default, new wireless connections not made available users on computer.

suggest:

  1. in users , groups application, set sister's account's permissions allow connect wireless , ethernet networks.
  2. in own (administrator) account, edit settings wireless network in question , tick box, "available users". automatically make available sister, should no longer bothered authentication requests.
