The problem is that (at least using knetworkmanager) you can't choose between infratructure only and adhoc connections. The point is the hotspot I'm using (it's inside a library with many students) is hiding its SSID. And windows make it to easy to start an

adhoc network. So there are a lot of computers saying that they would be the hotspot but they are just a adhoc network. Networkmanager always tries to connect to the adhocs which fails of course. What to do to enforce connecting to the infrastructure??
Otherwise use the traditional scripts.
But then I can't use it at home again without starting yast and reconfigure everything.
I just don't want to connect to adhoc networks. If networkmanager connects to a adhoc network with the same ssid, is it sending the WEP/WAP key to there, too?
Use the SUMF program to switch between setups. Configure the computer as you wish, including ESSID, WPA, etc, and then save that configuration in SUMF. Then reconfigure the computer for the other location and save that profile to SUMF. Then you can switch between the profiles without reconfiguring.
