[Bug 468741] Re: Hidden SSID WLAN doesn't work under Ubuntu.9.10 at all
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 446394 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/446394 I use Kubuntu 9.10 on an Asus F6Ve (Intel WiFi Link 1000bgn and module iwlagn) and had the same problem with knetworkmanager. I replaced it with nm-applet but, while better with network-manager-vpnc than knetworkmanager, it didn't connect either. So I tried to force scanning of my particular hidden ssid (let's call it whereRU) with : -8--8--8--8--8- sudo iwlist wlan0 scan essid whereRU -8--8--8--8--8- and ... after a few seconds... tada... IT WORKS ! and with knetworkmanager too. I suppose iwlagn can't find a hidden ssid until you put its nose ON it ;-) Hope this helps Yfff -- Hidden SSID WLAN doesn't work under Ubuntu.9.10 at all https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/468741 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 446394 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/446394 After reading the original report, I don't think this is a duplicate of bug #446394, although it seems that some comments in it probably do belong to #446394. Could this be an 11n issue? My Ubuntu 9.10 can connect to a hidden 11n network at work, but previous versions of Ubuntu to get it to work I had to disable the 11n functionality in my intel 4965 card by adding a file /etc/modprobe.d/iwlagn.conf with the line: options iwlagn 11n_disable=1 and then restarting the network card with: sudo modprobe -r iwlagn sudo modprobe iwlagn I've done this again in Ubuntu 9.10 recently because either network- manager or the 11n driver is still a bit buggy (after connecting to the hidden 11n network, when I standby and resume and try to connect to my home 11g network, it often can't connect). -- Hidden SSID WLAN doesn't work under Ubuntu.9.10 at all https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/468741 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 468741] Re: Hidden SSID WLAN doesn't work under Ubuntu.9.10 at all
I have had the same problem since upgrading to karmic. I use wicd and have had the problem there as well as NetworkManager. My workaround is to build a wpa_supplicant configuration for the hidden network and then have a shell script that starts wpa_supplicant twice, killall wpa_suppilcant processes this will get the wifi out of ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready mode. Then the script will do a call to wpa_supplicant and dhclient and I have a working connection. ** Attachment added: workaround script http://launchpadlibrarian.net/36342624/custom.sh -- Hidden SSID WLAN doesn't work under Ubuntu.9.10 at all https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/468741 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Charlie It is useless to just say I am using fedora 12 and it works it could be better to describe what kernel version are you using and related kernel config file so we can try to fix this problem on Ubuntu too. -- Hidden SSID WLAN doesn't work under Ubuntu.9.10 at all https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/468741 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

As someone mentioned that a workaround is installation of Fedora 12 I have to confirm that it also work on Mandrake 2010, to me it is more of a kernel driver problem than anything else. Both Fedora and Mandrake have later kernel versions than Karmic and it works on them. Ubuntu 9.10 and OpenSuSE 11.2 have same issue and both use similar kernel versions.

[Bug 468741] Re: Hidden SSID WLAN doesn't work under Ubuntu.9.10 at all
Guys im confused. I was trying to override KNM through manually configured wpa_supplicant.conf using wpa_supplicant then. I was using, ifconfig, iwconfig, iwlist to configure every possible thing. After I shot KNM, for the first time using wpa_supplicant, it successfully connected to hidden network but failed to authenticate certificates:(. Ok right. I modified wpa_supplicant.conf and then it wasn able to connect again. Even if I recreated first attempt with original conf after reboot. Weird. I started KNM manually after i gave up with wpa_supplicant and what the hell? It was showing hidden wifi as available and secure. BUT WHEN I CLICKED ON IT IT WASNT CONNECTING. So I figured, that when wlan0 is issued with name of hidden wifi through iwconfig wlan0 essid ** and then iwlist wlan0 scan (sometimes twice or three times:o)) KNM shows the hidden network as available, but cannot connect:(. Im starting to think that this is more complex problem than KNM:-/. -- Hidden SSID WLAN doesn't work under Ubuntu.9.10 at all https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/468741 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

A probably workaround (it worked for me!) could be to create the same wifi network connection as it was not hidden and try to connect to both (first the hidden one). -- Hidden SSID WLAN doesn't work under Ubuntu.9.10 at all https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/468741 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'have the same problem in a acer aspire 5735.
