DetailsDescription:
When using WEP encryption or manual iwconfig one can set the BSSID using the AP variable in the netcfg profile. When using WPA encryption the network association is done by wpa_supplicant but the contents of the AP variable do not get written to the generated wpa-configuration. It would be nice to be able to set the BSSID even for WPA encrypted networks. |

I have written a small patch which reads the AP variable from the netcfg profile and passes it through to the wpa_supplicant config file... or would it be better to name this variable BSSID in this case?
