This is probably a dupe of 815091 where on F17 right now for some reason wpa_supplicant isn't started correctly by dbus activation. Can you check /var/log/messages for anything like: (wlan0): error adding interface: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply time out expired, or the network connection was broken. 9529:Apr 23 21:58:47 rune NetworkManager[781]: dbus_g_proxy_cancel_call: assertion `pending != NULL' failed Indeed, i've found this in /var/log/messages: Apr 25 00:17:46 localhost gnome-session[746]: DEBUG(+): GsmDBusClient: obj_path=/org/freedesktop/DBus interface=org.freedesktop.DBus method=NameOwnerChanged Apr 25 00:17:58 localhost NetworkManager[574]: <error> [1335302278.61158] [nm-supplicant-interface.c:804] interface_add_cb(): (wlan0): error adding interface: Did not receive a reply.

Created attachment 579945 [details] dmesg output while trying in vain to connect Description of problem: After yum upgrading to f17 from f16, nm no longer connects to the wireless network at startup. It just displays "no network connection" (no wire is connected). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): $ rpm -q NetworkManager NetworkManager-0.9.4.0-7.git20120403.fc17.i686 the card is connected through pcmcia slot. 03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Ralink corp. RT2500 802.11g [1814:0201] (rev 01) How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1.log into gnome 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: nm should connect to the available wireless network Additional info: things always worked in f16 (excepting the occasional requests for password). i've tried the f16 kernel and it didn't help. i've also tried with selinux enforcing=0 and it also didn't help. i've added antenna to the wireless router in order to increase the signal, it also didn't help. sometimes if i play with enable/disable wireless/network, it starts working, or at least it displays the available wireless networks and keeps asking for passwords.
