[Bug 330811] Re: Can't connect to a hidden network

[Toni Helenius]

I tried it with Kubuntu Jaunty with latest OFFICIAL updates. I just
installed the updated NM package from the Jaunty proposed.

BEFORE update:
 - Tested on non secured visible WLANs: works, reconnecting too
 - Hidden networks do NOT work
 - WLAN plasma menu cluttered and kicker panel plus other panels on NM overlaps WLAN panel occasionally (unusable at times)

AFTER update:
 - I was able to connect to a hidden secured network, and the password was saved
 - Reconnecting did NOT work on my hidden network
 - It was really hard to use at times, the WLAN menu was still cluttered
 - I didn't get the logic behind the "connect to hidden networks", using the same SSID it tried to add a new connection instead using the saved ones. And the plasma menu didn't always show the saved ones

Conclusion:
 - The update kinda works out this bug (connecting to a hidden network) BUT any chance to improve its usability and work out the other bugs?
