Hi, all, |
2 |
|
3 |
I have been using wireless successfully for about a month, until I |
4 |
upgraded madwifi-ng last night. Since then wireless has not |
5 |
worked. I have a netgear wireless router which supplies the |
6 |
wireless signal, and the configuration of this router has not |
7 |
changed. And wireless works fine from the same box when I |
8 |
boot Windows. So, the problem seems to be related to the |
9 |
madwifi-ng upgrade. |
10 |
|
11 |
No configuration files were changed - at least etc-update didn't |
12 |
report any. |
13 |
|
14 |
In /var/log/messages,, I find the following: |
15 |
|
16 |
rc-scripts: WEP key is not set for "NETGEAR" - not connecting |
17 |
|
18 |
Well... of course it isn't - my router uses WPA encryption, |
19 |
and always has. My /etc/conf.d/net and |
20 |
/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf files are straight from |
21 |
the gentoo handbook: |
22 |
|
23 |
/etc/conf.d/net: |
24 |
|
25 |
modules=( "wpa_supplicant" ) |
26 |
wpa_supplicant_ath0="-Dmadwifi" |
27 |
modules=( "dhcpcd" ) |
28 |
config_ath0=( "dhcp" ) |
29 |
dhcpcd_ath0="-t 10 -s 192.168.1.101" |
30 |
dhcp_ath0="release nodns nontp nonis" |
31 |
nis_domain_ath-=" mydomain.org" |
32 |
|
33 |
/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf: |
34 |
|
35 |
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant |
36 |
ctrl_interface_group=0 |
37 |
ap_scan=1 |
38 |
network={ |
39 |
ssid="NETGEAR" |
40 |
psk="xxx" |
41 |
priority=5 |
42 |
} |
43 |
|
44 |
|
45 |
So, why does the rc-script suddenly think I'm using WEP encryption |
46 |
? |
47 |
|
48 |
Thanks for any and all ideas. |
