Comment (by mrenzmann):
{{{
#!blockquote
As far as I see, the asterisk after chan 12, 13 and 14 indicates that the
card thinks it is only allowed to do passive scanning on these
frequencies. Is active scanning necessary to associate to an AP with a
known hidden ESSID?
}}}
Yes, active scanning is necessary in order to associate to a hidden ESSID.
The question is why these channels are marked for passive-only scans...
did you try the module parameters ''outdoor=1'' and ''xchanmode=1''?
Please try a more recent version of MadWifi, either a current svn snapshot
or the v0.9.1 release, and see if the problem is still existing there.
