I installed the gtkwifi 1.08
but I can't get i to work
-> My SSID is hidden
-> I first need to go to system -> administration -> Network: deactivate & reactivate wlan0 (is this still from linuxant driverloader? only then the link LED starts blinking on my nic)
-> then I get a listing of my AP with "sudo iwlist wlan0 scan"
-> then I also get a listing in the gtkwifi applet
-> I connect & enter WEP key (64)
-> then DHCP fails...
PS1: must the key bey entered in a special way? I tried xxxxxxxxxx, xxxx-xxxx-xx, xx : xx : xx : xx : xx (without space)
PS2: on startup the applet says: "connected" but no ssid, and 0% signal strength...
Anyone knows how to get my wifi online? or does it just doesn't work with ubuntu & the broadcom bcmwl5a driver? :(
