One more question about device activation (trunk)

[Helmut Schaa <hschaa suse de>]

Hi,

just stumbled across an issue while playing around with wireless connections 
in KNM.

Why does NM require specific_object to be set when connecting to a wireless 
network? Shouldn't the wireless and security settings suffice? What if I want 
to connect to a hidden network where no AP is available yet?

In my opinion NM should (if no AP is specified) try to find one in its AP-list 
which fits best the connection's settings and use this one (for hidden 
networks of course no AP should be used). I think there was some code in NM 
which had this behaviour before?

Thanks,
Helmut
