Dear all,
I have a problem with NetworkManager at work, where the APs don't
broadcast their ESSID. At home, where I don't hide the ESSID, there is
no problem.
So, here it goes: I'm running NetworkManager on a Dell D600 and really
like it, especially the dispatcher feature. However, when I'm at work,
the internal wireless network does not show up in the list that the
nm-applet provides. I can connect to it without problem using the
'Connect to other wireless networks' option. Then it shows in the list.
However, next time I reboot the machine and look into the applet, the
internal network is gone again from the list. It's a WEP encrypted
network, if that makes any difference.
in ~/.gconf/system/networking/wireless/networks I find a configuration
for the network, but it never shows up. It kind of defeats the purpose
of NetworkManager, if you need to configure the same network all the
time again.
I googeled already, but didn't find any answer.
Am I completely optimistic to assume, that the network should show up,
once it was configured correctly? Is there any solution for that?
The way it is now, it's useless for me :(
I'm running Ubuntu Dapper Drake and tried both the default network
manager version, which is 0.6.0 and the lastest (0.6.4) one compiled
form sources.
Thanks and cheers,
a very frustrated Riko
