Neill,
Thanks for responding! I tried iwconfig too, actually. Didn't seem to
have an effect. After setting the essid with iwconfig I tried using
KWifiManager again and it still hopped networks.
Using KWifiManager is the only way I know to see which network it's
actually connected to. Is there any other way?
Any other tricks you know to set the essid?
