No secret. I selected the network, followed through the panels and plugged in the key and it just worked.
Where? Where do you select WPA-PSK? Where do you enter the shared key? Those options do not appear in my installed version of knetworkmanager. Which gui are you using for it? KDE3/4/Gnome?
1) Create a new connection and click on the SSID, then Next. 2) Verify "Use Wireless Security" and "WPA Personal" are selected. Enter key and click on "Connect and Save". 3) Done
I have done the above on two computers and at least 5 access points. It always works for me.
I just realised that you are definitely not using KDE4's knetworkmanager (at least, not the same version as I'm using). No "connect and save" button - just OK and Cancel. Wireless Security is a tab, not a checkbox and the option is WPA/WPA2 Personal but it asks for a password, not a pre-shared key. Like I said, the knetworkmanager is broken (or perhaps functionally challenged is a more apt description). What gui interface to Network Manager are you using? -- =================================================== Rodney Baker VK5ZTV rodney.baker@iinet.net.au =================================================== -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
