Wifi problem

Hello guys,

I put 7.2RC1 on my Legend, and everything seems to be cool, only it seems, that it cannot connect to wifi networks, with hidden SSIDs. Does anyone have same experiences? I have tried it with radio 7.08.35.21 and 7.13.35.13. The SSID shows up between the found networks, but only for a second, than it disappears for a few seconds (says it's not in range), than shows up again, and so on.. :confused:

Drives me crazy :mad:

So what actually do you expect as correct behaviour? Shown in the list, or hidden? Do you expect security improvements using hidden SSID - it's definitely not. In general, hiding the SSID is not recommended (just google that topic).

As posted right above - you will have to add it manually.

Just my 2 cents :)

Ah.. Of course I've added it manually. In other ways how would it even show up in the list?
I had no problem with hidden networks with my stock ROM. I just switched to Cyanogenmod. And I can't connect to these networks anymore.
(I'm not expecting security improvements, but I'm not the one who's managing these networks, so I have no choice.)

Yep. In case that there will something to continue :) Because commits in gingerbread branch are very rare now.
Indeed. However the current ROMs are very smooth and stable. No (real) issues as far as I can see. I use your builds as my daily ROM, and it's great.

I agree with Oops. Tried CM9 a few days ago after CM7.1. But camera issues and screen lock at incoming call made me try this ROM. I am using the latest nightly with no problems.

I am happy with my Legend :)
