Wireless on Red

Guys I need help setting up a wireless connection on Red.

The Wi-Fi spot I’m trying to connect doesn’t have a password to login.

IPFire detects the wireless card and I get the option on the GUI to add networks.

I added and checked mark the network I want to connect and place the SSID of the hotspot and no password as it doesn’t require a password. Then, I leave everything in auto and blank, but it doesn’t connect. I only get connecting on the GUI but nothing happens.

Should I do it from the console instead of the GUI?

Would you mind posting the basic setting for hostapd to join a simple network with no password/no encryption?

Or am I missing something on the GUI settings?

@crazyfire has commented through a flag that after re-installing a few times the hostapd is now accepting an entry without a password.
