Yes, I agree. But using nm I get connection some times (after lot of
tries) and after this the connection is stable. The problem is getting
connection and not keep connected... So I guess that the problem is
not only the signal quality, but the set: low quality + lot os APs +
hidden SSID.

I'm using CVS version, it's already using DBus, right?
