I am running SUSE 10.1 on an IBM ThinkPad R31. I have been trying, without success, to use KWiFiManager to configure the built in wireless adapter. When I try to connect to a known AP, I get an error message "Aborting network switching due to invalid WEP key specification." In the configuration editor, when I click on "Activate", I get several error messages, including:
SSID could not be set Operation mode could not be set Speed settings could not be set Encryption settings could not be set Power management settings coud not be set
So, it appears that I cannot configure anything with KWiFiManager. Also, prior to running SUSE 10.1, I could use WLAN Assistant, but that no longer works either.
any ideas?
tnx jk
Have you tried using knetworkmanager ? I just spent 3 weeks on the road and was very surprised how easy it was. You can bring up a window showing you all the available networks.... which are secure.... and select one to connect to. Very easy and flexible.
I'll see if it does anything for me, but currently, it doesn't show any of the 6 known networks in the vicinity. tnx
