    this is the fix you might do it every time you restart vmware

    /etc/init.d/network-manager stop
    update-rc.d network-manager disable
    /etc/init.d/wicd restart
    wicd-client

    hi
    if this can possibly be of help && if your interface (result of iwconfig)is wlan0:
    have you try to change to "type of key" in wicd>your wlan network> proprieties ?

    Wireless install

    Step 1 :

    apt-get install dkms linux-headers-$(uname -r)

    Step 2 :

    Download the latest version of the source file.

    wget http://ftp.wa.co.za/pub/ubuntu/ubunt...ntu2_amd64.deb

    dpkg -i bcmwl-kernel-source_6.30.223.141+bdcom-0ubuntu2_amd64.deb

    After the installation, the wireless APs will be detected and login.
