Now things get more interesting ;-) (even more than I thought...)
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:
# iw dev wlan0 link
Not connected.
# iwconfig wlan0
wlan0 IEEE 802.11abgn ESSID:off/any
Mode:Managed Access Point: Not-Associated Tx-Power=15 dBm
Retry long limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Encryption key:off
Power Management:off
Interestingly, I did _not_ get any error messages on "rcnetwork restart" (see
comment #8 for the error messages I got at LinuxTag). The difference is
probably that I deleted the existing ifcfg-wlan0 config file before running
YaST. (I can provide all relevant config files if you want to compare them.)
