System and Network configuration • [Solved] wifi adapter found but password failure

$

I have an old toshiba laptop with debian 11 (lxde). It has a build in wifi adapter (Intel Pro Wireless 2200BG, firmware-ipw2x00)
This adapter has always worked without problems.

Yesterday I replaced the hdd with an ssd. Now the wifi tries to connect but keeps asking for the password. But the connection is not made. When I switch (real hardware switch) the wifi off and on again the connection is made. So the password is correct.

I have reinstalled the wifi driver and forced the band to BG(2.4 Ghz) .

What can I do to fix this?

update:
- I removed al the wifi information. No improvement
- I removed and reinstalled network-manager and network-manager-gnome and now it seems to work again (rebooted four times and every time the connection was made automatically)
