RC2 Unable to select SSID

[parthabhatta]

I have successfully used my WiFi dongle with Openelec and Raspbmc and xbmc in Gotham/ Helix versions. Now I thought to try Xbian and I am stuck. I downloaded windows installer and installed RC2 for my pi and booted. I go into settings menu and open the WiFi config screen with proper navigation - nomproblem here. I select wlan0. Next line "status" shows "DOWN". I think this will be automatically changed once WiFi connects so I don't touch this.
Now the problem: I open by clicking on "SSID" OPTION. The option opens a window and shows my only network say named "XYZ". I try to select that and click on it by mouse or press enter on keyboard. The window gets closed and nothing happens - the SSID does not get selected. I have tried this number of times but nothing helps.
My SSID is WPA2 protected incidentally.
Help requested.
