Secrets Error -- Network Manager
If you see Network logs showing error like: secrets provided, associating -- disassociating, over and over.
Also, using nmcli or nmtui or raspi-config doesn't work to connect to a new or same access point.
I'm not entirely sure, but in my case it was,
1. Shared Space
using ntfs-3g (/etc/fstab) can cause Network Errors (wlan0) because of the shared DBUS space namespace & FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) both of which NetworkManager relies on.
2. USB Interference
Also, If you have unshielded cable from your USB 3.0 Port, it can conflict with the radio, interfering with the signals, therefore, unable to associate or authenticate.
FIX
- Use USB 2.0 -- if you have unshielded cable.
- Avoid using ntfs-3g -- instead use native kernel support ntfs3 -- insmod
- Delay ntfs-3g mount -- after boot has long finished -- use systemctl script
