Hello, at my location i sometimes notice that different WLAN-routers broadcasts the same SSID, but different frequencies and MAC-addresses. They also require different (WPA1/2-) keys to access. But i have only the access key of one of this access points.
The autoconnect feature of nm-applet (and hence network manager) seems to select the host to connect only by the SSID - which often fails. Could i suggest to implement and use (/store) the MAC address of the WLAN access point as additional selection key (maybe optionally) ? Maybe it is already there, but i failed to find on how to configure it (using nm-applet). Yes, i know, the backend is wpa-supplicant - maybe there is the deficit. But network manager is "configuring it" and so this should be possible. Actually i use network manager v. 0.9.4.0. regards Petric _______________________________________________ networkmanager-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
