Description Holger Sutter 2007-09-20 19:08:50 UTC
at first: sorry for my bad english!

The Problem:
I have no access to my wlan modem (speedport W701V and AVM Fritzbox Phon Wlan) if I select the option "covered ssid" in the modem-config. 
knetworkmanager shows the network with signal-strenght = 0, connection is not working.

If I change the option to "uncovered ssid" in the modem-config, the connection works fine with full signal-strenght.
