[Bug 69587] Re: Wireless Network Access Points NOT Listed

[Steve Bourg]

I have the exact same experience on three different laptops.  The
systems displayed the available ESSIDs prior to the 6.10 upgrade.

System #1: HP nc6230 w/ integrated wireless NIC
     02:04.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection (rev 05)

System #2: Dell Latitude D600 w/ integrated wireless NIC 
     02:03.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02)

System #3: Compaq nc6000 w/ integrated wireless NIC
     02:04.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. AR5212 802.11abg NIC (rev 01)


I also tried a  Cisco Aironet 350 PCMCIA card in System #2 and got the same result.  'iwlist scanning' works as expected.  Manually entering/typing the desired ESSID achieves AP association.  However, this is not practical for my non-technical friends.
