Did a fresh install of 9.04 Beta today and updated it from the main repository. Still not able to connect to a hidden SSID with plasma-widget-network-manager (PWNM) and a ThinkPad buildin Intel 2915ABG adapter. Removed the SSID from Network-Managment rebooted, disabled the buildin adapter in BIOS, and after login to KDE inserted a Cisco PCMCIA Atheros AR5212 based adapter. Recreated the SSID in Network-Managment and waited a while, executing nm-tools to find out if the hidden SSID was listed. The SSID did not show up at any time until I forced a scan by using "wpa_supplicant", then the PWNM recognized it an connected. Removed the SSID from Network-Managment and shutdown the box, removed the PCMCIA adapter and booted. As above I inserted a 3COM USB WiFi stick with Zyxel zd1211 chipset, recreated the SSID and waited as described above - no connection until a scan was forced by "wpa_supplicant"
All tests was done using a Cisco router with a build Atheros based radio as access point. Using WPA2 and CCMP encryption, and a simpel secret on 8 characters. -- Can't connect to a hidden network https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/330811 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to plasma-widget-network-manager in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
