Hi All, |

I am unable to connect to a wireless access point unless it is set to announce |
4 |
its ESSID. |

|

The error I get in the logs is: |
7 |
========================================== |

Jan 16 09:42:22 lappy wlan0: starting scan |
9 |
Jan 16 09:42:24 lappy wlan0: scan completed |
10 |
Jan 16 09:42:24 lappy rc-scripts: WEP key is not set for " " - not connecting |
11 |
Jan 16 09:42:24 lappy rc-scripts: Couldn't associate with any access points on |
12 |
wlan0 |
13 |
Jan 16 09:42:24 lappy rc-scripts: Failed to configure wireless for wlan0 |
14 |
========================================== |

This happens despite me changing the key entry from key_ESSID-name="12345678" |
17 |
to key="12345678". |
18 |
|
19 |
Can you please tell me how to associate with access points that do not |
20 |
transmit their ESSID but have WEP enabled? I tried using the MAC address of |
21 |
the ESSID but it did not work. |
