Comment(by chihyu):

 Tested at 1cc on a MP machine with clean installed update.1 690, q2d10.

  * Machine powers up after clean installation to build 690 and then
 connects to mesh network.
  * Click on the "roofnet" AP and enter the password; machine connects to
 "roofnet".
  * Click on the "media lab 802.11" AP; machine connects to "media lab
 802.11".
  * Click on the "roofnet" AP again; machine keeps prompting for password.
 Machine still fails to connect, even when the password has been entered
 more than 3 times. (The prompt for the password will eventually disappear.
 The machine will then connect to mesh network or not connect to any AP.)

 There are three ways to reconnect to "roofnet":
  1. Click on the "media lab 802.11" AP. After machine connects to "media
 lab 802.11", click on the "roofnet" AP again.
  1. If that fails, click on one of the 3 mesh network APs. After machine
 connects to the mesh network, click on the "roofnet" AP again.
  1. If that also fails, edit out the {{{[roofnet]}}} section of
 {{{/home/olpc/.sugar/default/nm/networks.cfg}}}. The file does NOT have to
 be deleted. Then go back to sugar view and click on the "roofnet" AP again
 -- the machine should connect to "roofnet" now, withOUT re-entering the
 password. (Connecting to "roofnet" also creates a new {{{[roofnet]}}}
 section in {{{networks.cfg}}}.)
