Something has changed between the 30-9-2007 and the 27-10, date of my update. i can confirm that world and kernel of 30-9 connected quite well even with a hidden AP. Here is the config: Current, on two machines, (one laptop with the iwi driver, and one smp with ath builtin on the motherboard. i use wpa_supplicant with both, and nothing has changed in the config. of course the config_file points to the ssid and psk is correct. wpa_supplicant -d see the mac address but reports a bad ssid "" (hidden), but the ssid of the AP is present. With some help perhaps i can investigate furthermore and solve the problem. Thanks in advance. best regards Raoul rmgls@free.fr
