<div dir="ltr"><div>Thanks!<br></div><div>wicd was not installed - I added it to fight with MetworkManager. nmcli worked, too. I used to have wheezy on a couple of servers, but there was no wireless connection. I hardcoded the eth0 connections in /etc/networking/interfaces, but never had to touch that again, unless I had to change the IP for some reason. For some reason I was resistant to hardcoding the wireless stanza. Thanks for the reminder of that.<br>

Under Debian wheezy I don't even have a GUI for the network<br>
configuration. I just add the wireless info (SSID, key, etc.) to<br>
/etc/network/interfaces and then use 'ifup wlan0' to bring up my network<br>
(actually happens automatically because my wireless card is PCMCIA but I<br>
have altered it manually before.)<br>
<br>
iface wlan0 inet dhcp<br>
wpa-ssid <ssid><br>
wpa-psk <key><br>
wpa-scan-ssid 1<br>
wpa-ap-scan 1<br>
