Ubuntu – Ubuntu asks for Wifi password during startup even though it remembers it

14.04wireless

I am using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and I have a problem with my wifi. Its not really a big deal, but its annoying. I got asked for my wifi login credentials during each startup even though Ubuntu remembers my username login and password.

This happens even before I login into the system. And it does not even matter wheter I enter the wifi password of not. If I just click "cancel" on that dialog and then login to the system, its going to connect to the wifi anyway (automatically). I am just trying to get rid og the dialog.

Any tips?

Network Manager saves the passwords in your keyring, which doesn't get unlocked until you login. You can stop it from connecting before you login by unchecking "Available to other users" in the connection settings.
