I (again) configured my WLAN router to unencrypted mode and deleted/renamed /etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-wlan0 before every step to have a clean start.
YaST seems to have two different modes for unencrypted networks:
a) WEP - Open This works (don't ask why I didn't try it earlier ;-)
b) No Encryption With this setting, WLAN doesn't work:
You are right. When the AP is set to use no encryption and no authentication the Yast can't configure and connect the AP with "No Encryption", but "WEP Open" works well. The difference between "No Encryption" and "WEP Open" is, that "WEP Open" shall allow an authentication. "WEP Open" works well. I can see wpa_supplicant configured [1] and connected. When user selects "No Encryption", Yast shall only run [2]. How does the Yast manage wireless "No Encryption" wireless configuration ?
