Hello,

I send an ultimate distress signal about this :
https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2712

Once again I am having this bug that can occur on any WPA hotspot my
laptops can connect to. But now, I cannot work in
my development environment for more than one day because he refuses
connect me to the hotspot I need to connect to.

Since I got no answer since I opened the bug, as asked previously in
this ML, I now cry for help about this. This seriously affects the work
I have to complete everyday (I know I have the printer thing as well to
answer and solve) and I just cannot do anything about this except really
endangering my laptop currently, in the absence of progress concerning
this extremely annoying bug.

Tell me what I should do, I shall answer you very quickly and give the
answers I am able to fetch if you tell me what is precisely needed.

Thank you very much by advance.

Thomas aka Skiper.

Is it a DCHP issue? If you use a fixed IP address does the problem go away? I used to have real issues with Mandriva a few years ago until I changed the DHCP client in the network setup. Might be worth a try - might be talking ********!

Nope, still would not work. And still, it has been working fine for one week before he did me this again without needing a fixed IP. 

Note that I can connect to other wireless hotspots, opened or close, but not the only one I need to. And my ids are supposed to be all good. And it is the only hotspot where he mixes up config files, sometimes telling me it is open while there is an Enteprise WPA2 key. 

He also keeps my ids instead of deleting them even if I delete the wireless connection to create it again.
