I checked the behaviour of previous releases with LiveCDs. On 11.04 creating a WPA WLAN leads to an open network. On 10.10 I saw a WEP secured net (in Wifi Analyzer, Android) but the connection information in Ubuntu said WPA.
I think it's the behaviour or Ubuntu 10.10 which led me to think it worked in a previous release, because I was asked for a password, but I wasn't aware, that it wasn't WPA but WEP. I'm sorry for the confusion. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/905748 Title: Create WPA2 adhoc is Open, not encrypted To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/905748/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
