    It is advisable to use x200-my in conjunction with wpa_supplicant and dhcpcd only. In addition, wpa_gui and dhcpcd-ui are also recommended.

    +

    For this to work properly, it is important to have these two lines in /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf:

    +
    mac_addr=1
    +preassoc_mac_addr=1
    +

    And these settings in /etc/dhcpcd.conf:

    +
    hostname "localhost"
    +hostname_short
    +
