Re: NetworkManager with hidden ESSID
Hi again, I wanted to check both at home and at work before answering the questions. I have a problem with NetworkManager at work, where the APs don't broadcast their ESSID. At home, where I don't hide the ESSID, there is no problem. Actually, I was wrong, also my AP at home hides its ESSID Does the AP show up in the scan list if you do a manual iwlist ethX scan as root? It does show up at home (with hidden ESSID as mentioned above). It does *NOT* show up at work. Only after I configured the network entering the ESSID and the WEP key manually, the AP shows up in the iwlist scan. So there is a clear difference between the two locations So, here it goes: I'm running NetworkManager on a Dell D600 and really like it, especially the dispatcher feature. However, when I'm at work, the internal wireless network does not show up in the list that the nm-applet provides. I can connect to it without problem using the 'Connect to other wireless networks' option. Then it shows in the list. However, next time I reboot the machine and look into the applet, the internal network is gone again from the list. It's a WEP encrypted network, if that makes any difference. in ~/.gconf/system/networking/wireless/networks I find a configuration for the network, but it never shows up. It kind of defeats the purpose of NetworkManager, if you need to configure the same network all the time again. Does the AP's bssid (looks like a MAC address) show up in the bssids key in the saved settings for that wireless network? NM caches the BSSID of base stations it's connected to for each wireless network, and then reverse-matches those to the BSSIDs it finds in the scan list, and that's how it finds hidden SSID access points. We need to figure out which part here is breaking down. Yes, the bssid is stored in the settings. In fact, since I saw from the iwlist scan results, that there are apparently 2 APs for the same network, I added the second bssid to the settings manually using gconf-editor. But again, after a reboot of the machine, the internal network was not available in the network list.

Re: NetworkManager with hidden ESSID
hi, Aloisio wrote: Hi, Do you know if there has more than one AP with same SSID in the same place?? In large places this is necessary to provide enought signal quality. If in the last time you have connected to AP with mac address X, nm make an association between X and the SSID, right ? But when it gets scan results, you can have X, Y and W APs providing connection and both with same SSID, and both hidden. The question is: in this case, what nm do ? I will able to connect only on X AP (if the SSID appear in list)? Can nm associate more than one mac address to a SSID ? The SSID does not appear because Y or W have more sinal quality than X ? Yes, there are at least 2 APs near my office for the same network (see my post a few minutes ago). I added the bssid of the second AP to the network settings with gconf-editor. However, the network was still not recognized after a reboot of the machine.

For me the correct solution is: /etc/acpi/suspend.d/07-network-manager.sh #!/bin/sh /etc/dbus-1/event.d/25NetworkManager stop and /etc/acpi/resume.d/99-network-manager.sh #!/bin/sh /etc/dbus-1/event.d/25NetworkManager start It looks like 07 and 99 are significant here.
