wireless_send_event() for IWAP with all zeros is the correct method. This will cause the supplicant to disconnect and attempt to re-connect, and if that fails for long enough, NM will disconnect as well. Can you use wpa_supplicant manually and provide some logs showing the disconnect behavior? Basically, if wpa_supplicant doesn't know about the disconnection, neither will NM. dan _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
