Cannot connect to wifi at home after upgrade to ubuntu 14.04

Hi all,
I had the same problem. I could see Wi-Fi networks after a fresh install of 16.04, but when I tried to connect, enter the correct password, nothing would happen.

I resolved it as follows:
  1. Go to 'edit network connections'
  2. Select the Wi-Fi network and hit 'edit'
  3. Select Wi-Fi Security tab and choose 'WPA & WPA2 Personal'
  4. In the space below enter the Wi-Fi password and hit save. Done.

Even though I entered the same password correctly in the usual pop up window when I chose the Wi-Fi connection without success, entering it this way worked for me.
 


It looks like an Ubuntu bug. This is an other reason why I use MX-16.
