** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: nm-applet
  
- I could not connect to a network that had the router set with "wireless
- ssid broadcast" set to off. As soon as that setting was changed in the
- router I was able to connect. Changing it back to non-broadcasting while
- connected resulted in immediate loss of connection. I used
- NetworkManager in Edgy x86_64 and did not have this issue with the same
- hardware (Thinkpad t60 with Atheros wireless using Madwifi in linux-
- restricted).

madwifi svn when I had success finding the unbroadcast ssid network.
