 channel 13

Rafael,

I believe that we have fixed the part of this bug that was a regression, namely being unable to connect to a non-hidden SSID, in 2.6.35 commit 3ee378d7e0dfdb9bb. Being able to connect to a hidden SSID I believe isn't a regression, and a patch for that is on its way upstream for 2.6.37. I think you should stop tracking this as a regression.
