This is how each station knows how to reach each other since the MAC Address is the only addressing known at layer two. Since all hosts on the network have to know each others MAC it cannot be encrypted. So all someone has to do is fire up their favorite wireless discovery program to see which MAC Addresses have an association and steal it. ___ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list

Networkmanager not connecting to known network
I have been reading the list and snooping around in the files trying to figure this out, but I'm not sure what I'm looking for. I know it is supposed to connect to a known network automatically. It does try but times out. Any help is appreciated.
