Ah, thanks Lewis, that figures.
;-)
In order to allow my daughter to log
in to HP from here (whilst we are entertaining her children) I had to
drop the security down to WPA from WPA2. That let her work, and also
let me continue working from eCS and Win7. But Ubuntu then refused to
connect. I found that I had to raise the router (a Belkin n-Wireless)
back up to WPA+WPA2 then all the clients were happy at WPA. This time,
I inadvertently set eCS back up to WPA2. Putting it back to WPA has
fixed the problem.

  
Makes sense...
Seems as if, between Ubuntu, eCS and Belkin, there are at least a
couple of bugs.

  
At least there are no open Windows. Bugs fly in through open Windows. :-)

Actually, you might have Ubuntu configured for WPA2. Drop that to WPA, and you may just get everything talking at once.
But at least I can now get back to working up RC7, which looks really
promising after the frustrations of RC6a.

  
We all certainly hope so, buddy.
Thanks. again. G

  
No problem. Glad I could help point you in the right direction. Now, wazzup with the wired connection on that machine?

the RC7 install found both my nics (10/100/1000 and 4965 a/g/n) but
neither work.

WPA Supplicant says :

Per my earlier email, this appears to be a mismatch in WPA methods.
