[Mageia-dev] WPA + draknetcenter
Hi, Is it just me or does draknetcenter not remember your WPA vs WEP vs. OPEN preferences for networks. I tend not to use the config wrappers in draknetcenter and usually just use wpa_supplicant.conf, but even if I set use the GUI and set my wifi networks to WPA, it writes the configs and wpa_supplicant.conf as if the network is WEP or open... Something is amiss, but not sure if it's just my install or if this is a wider problem? Any ideas?

Can you check, if your problem is similar or related to the bug I've reported? https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1263 I mentioned a workaround there - maybe it will help you too? Sigrid

Yup looks similar. Not sure the work around is practical as I have numerous networks in there already that I don't want to reconfigure... But I suspect this problem can be fixed easily enough by someone who knows the code... blino or TV perhaps?
