In other words, I can obtain a connection, even if very unstable and bad performing (ndiswrapper works a lot better), if I allow the router ESSID to be broadcast. If the ESSID is hidden, I can't connect.

Sounds feasible, various drivers stumble when it comes to hidden networks. I'll try to do some testing soon (with hidden network of course). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Therefore rt2570 should now be able to connect to hidden AP's. If the issue is not fixed please reopen. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
