Yes, with 2.6.24, iwlwifi is not required anymore. |

Then you haven't read mine^^. I actually have it working beautifully with |
| 11 |
WPA-PSK and unencrypted. Here's my wpa_supplicant.conf and my /etc/conf.d/net |
| 12 |
(with passwords removed, of course^^): |

/etc/conf.d/net (with comments): |

modules=("wpa_supplicant") |
| 55 |
wpa_supplicant_wlan0="-Dwext" # This, you need |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
#preferred_aps=( "WLAN1","WLAN2" ) Do not set this: wpa_supplicant chooses |
| 58 |
#the APs itself |
| 59 |
|

#Network configuration |
| 61 |
config_WLAN1=( "192.168.178.25 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.178.255" ) |
| 62 |
config_WLAN2=( "192.168.178.25 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.178.255" ); |

| 68 |

| 71 |

Also, I have a handy little script which I will attach. It stops the net.wlan0 |
| 74 |
initscript, unloads the iwl module and reloads the module. The initscript |
| 75 |
automatically restarts. |
