*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 59159 ***

GNOME rewrote the network-admin functionality during the latest release
and didn't replicate some of the functionality;  namely ESSID and PPP
auto-detection.

You can use the 'iwlist' command to list wireless settings and networks
from the command line;  eg:

   /sbin/iwlist eth1 scan
         Cell 01 - Address: 00:16:CF:01:0D:4C
                    ESSID:"Livebox-8838"
                    Protocol:IEEE 802.11bg
                    Mode:Master
                    ....


** Changed in: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu)
       Status: Unconfirmed => Confirmed
