Re: Cannot connect to wpa/wpa2 network with hidden SSID

[代尔欣 <daierxin gmail com>]

Hi all, 
     I also have this problem.  I try with NetworkManager-0.7.0. I am not familiar with wpa_supplicant. I try below conf with wpa_supplicant.
Conf 1:

ap_scan=1
network={
ssid="HIDE"
scan_ssid=1
proto=WPA
pairwise=TKIP
group=TKIP
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
psk="12345678"
}
This conf is similar with using NetworkManager sent to wpa_supplicant. The network can't be connected.

Conf 2:
ap_scan=2
network={
ssid="HIDE"
scan_ssid=1
proto=WPA
pairwise=TKIP
group=TKIP
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
psk="12345678"
}

This can connect. It seems ap_scan=2 make wpa_supplicant connect the AP directly But not scan the AP(If scan, should return FALSE? because the AP is hidden.)

I want to know the networkmanager can build the different option for differnt AP and pass it to wpa_supplicant?

I cannot connect with the latest Networkmanager to any network with
wpa/wpa2 that doesn't broadcast its name. Once the name is revealed
there are no problems. This is on Fedora 11 and there's a bug about it
here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=486877

Installed are:
NetworkManager-0.7.0.98-1.git20090225.fc11
NetworkManager-gnome-0.7.0.98-1.git20090225.fc11
NetworkManager-glib-0.7.0.98-1.git20090225.fc11
wpa_supplicant-0.6.7-4.fc11
wpa_supplicant-gui-0.6.7-4.fc11

i had this problem some months ago. Then it was with f9/f10 and it was
fixed later. but now it's back again.
