[Bug 286168] [NEW] Automatically reconnect to known wireless networks with hidden SSID

[Christiansen]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: network-manager-kde

KnetworkManager/network-manager-kde does not automatically reconnect to ALREADY KNOWN hidden wireless network (AP with hidden SSID). When the computer comes back from hibernation or the computer has been rebooted, the user has to go to the KNetworkManager applet in the systemtray and manually connect to the known wireless network.
Opposite when the SSID is NOT hidden this happens automatically when the wireless network i within reach of the computer (or the wireless adapter).
Connecting automatically to wireless networks with hidden SSID works in Kubuntu 7.10 and 8.04 using KNetworkManager (under KDE 3.5.x) up to version 0.2.2 (in Hardy).

** Affects: knetworkmanager (Ubuntu)
