The adhoc network with enabled SSID interferes with the infrastructure network with hidden SSID. I use "Connect to other" and, if there's no adhoc network with same SSID around, it connects to the hidden SSID. Like it should do. But if there's a network with same SSID Networkmanager connects to it no matter if you have choosen a different (the infrastructure network in my case) originally. Result is that Networkmanager tries to connect to the adhoc with shown SSID and fails of course.
You're saying, for example, you have a SSID (hidden) of Net1 and a SSID (open) of Net1 in the same room?
That's what I meant. I want to connect to the hidden SSID (it's infrastructure or managed mode) but NetworkManager tries to connect to the open SSID (it's an adhoc - computer to computer network).
Personally, I think it is lame that there's two networks with the same SSID in the same proximity. Change one and your problem is solved.
This is disappointing...
I agree. You need to chat with whomever set that up. I don't really think it is as much a software problem as a management problem. -- kai ponte www.perfectreign.com -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
