SSID hidden

AES

I have tried wlcardconfig, but the 'edit selection' button on Encryption does nothing.

I tried the network-admin applet on the Preferences menu, but it doesn't match the help file - the connections tab and location dropdown are missing.

I did some fiddling with wpa_supplicant but I'm not sure how to configure it. I am able to scan for available APs, but I'm not too sure how to connect.
I will suggest turn off the wpa2 first to perform a wireless connection test before going further. If it turns out successful, then continue testing with wpa2.

Please review Q11 on the following link to see if you can establish a wireless connection from your pc to the AP.

If not, read through Q2,3,11,12,13 and try it out one by one.

Good luck
