I am a recent newcomer to Linux Mint so can't offer any definite solution but, I had a similar problem when I installed the Mint software. Mine asked me for a UN and PW on start-up and would not let me in. I found that the copy of Mint was faulty and was a copy that had some problems added by the nob that distributed it.
The cure was to download Mint from another Trusted site and re-install it.
It then worked fine. If the copy of Mint is a newly downloaded one then I would try this.
It would appear to me that some guy is having a laugh at your expense
I hope this helps. Let me know if it does.

Subject: [LINUX_Newbies] LInux Mint WiFi Authenitcation Required
The installed Broadcom won't connect, so I got a 802.11n WLAN USB chip, and it does exactly the same thing. Won't connect with repeated Authentication Required messages. I enter the password of the router, and it still won't connect. Is there a setting on the Verizon site? What is the problem here? No real consensus online about it ... try this try that. Does anyone have a solution?
