Title: wicd-2.6 and hidden ssid
Post by: Juanito on November 16, 2010, 09:10:35 AM

wicd detects a wpa2 network with hidden ssid, but does not give the opportunity to enter the ssid - is there a trick to doing this?

Thanks - it still didn't work, but I managed to do things manually with wpa_supplicant - the trick with wpa2 personal was to use the passphrase rather than the really long code
