After setting essid (iwconfig wlan0 essid network), I can see it being set for a moment, but it's lost in about 1-2seconds; I have tried to change kernel (desktop / default) and reinstall the whole system - both with no success. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install opensuse 12.1 2. Try to connect to wifi network, via NetworkManager, via YAST, manualy via iwconfig+ifconfig e.g.: iwconfig wlan0 essid XXX Actual Results: [root@ember matrixx]# iwconfig wlan0 wlan0 IEEE 802.11bgn ESSID:"XXX" Mode:Managed Access Point: Not-Associated Tx-Power=14 dBm Retry long limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Encryption key:off Power Management:off #the above is (almost) expected result (there's no AP), but after second or two, iwconfig says: [root@ember matrixx]# iwconfig wlan0 wlan0 IEEE 802.11bgn ESSID:off/any Mode:Managed Access Point: Not-Associated Tx-Power=14 dBm Retry long limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Encryption key:off Power Management:off Expected Results: Should work out-of-the-box This is happening on Asus EEE 1015BX netbook; Lspci says: 01:00.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc.
