However, it's evident that there are some things that MUST be improved in the Linux software for those of us who have to access hidden access points. First, KNetworkmanager is useless if the access point is hidden, so you have to use Yast to setup each time you switch to a different access point. Kwifimanager might work, except it doesn't support WAP and without WAP there's no AES. This is ignorant, at best. wifi isn't all that secure anyway, but at least support the best tools available!
I think NetworkManager running on GNOME works just fine with hidden access points already.
How does any network manager "see" a hidden access point? My SSID is hidden and neither KDE or Vista can see it. I log in manually. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
