>Description:
Cannot access my home wireless network, if "HIDDEN SSID" on router is enabled.
Mac and Windows boxes access this network normally.
Using ral driver (Ralink)
Disabling Hidden SSID allows netbsd box to access network
>How-To-Repeat:
Try to access WEP-enabled, HIDDEN SSID enabled wireless network with ralink hardware on netbsd.
Then try to disable hidden ssid - it will work.
