Packet Tracer bug?

Hi there,

Thanks for reading!

I'm seeing an oddity when trying to join a laptop to an SSID in PT.  The problem is in the UI where I set configuration for Wireless0 nic.  When I select an authentication type, the cursor jumps to the WEP password field and then (logically) remains there even after I click the 802.1x radio button and configure user/pass.  The UI throws an error (WEP key is invalid) and sets the authentication to disabled.

I've disabled laptop wifi-then configured and reenabled, I've power cycled the laptop and deleted the laptop and started over.  Have you seen this behavior?  

I attached the PKT file.  Only one password for all services: Cisco!23

There are some bugs in PT and lots of weird stuff with PT on MAC OS or Ubuntu; I have not test WEP yet; there are some ready-to-use samples of Wireless labs in PT; go to File > Open samples and look for Networking > wireless

To attach file here, it must be a zip file! 

Also see CLN subforum about PT https://learningnetwork.cisco.com/s/topic/0TO6e000000WEorGAG/packet-tracer

Thanks for pointing out the samples.  Seems there's a LOT to choose from.  For clarity, I was trying to configure 802.1x but the cursor would jump to WEP password.  Pretty sure I was running into a bug.  Moving on... thanks again!
