1 The essid of my dormitory wireless netword is "Rebellion"
2 and its password is "I'll leave it up to you"(It's OK to tell
3 you this private information :-) ) .
4 I typed command below
5 #iwconfig wlan0 up
6 #iwconfig wlan0 essid "Rebellion"
7 Commands above worked normally, then
8
9 #iwconfig wlan0 mode master
10
11 Our AP mode which iwlist shows is master,
12 but the command above failed. Error message was
13 "Invalid argument".
14 Then I typed
15 #iwconfig wlan0 mode managed
16 This worked , then
17 #iwconfig wlan0 enc "I'll leave it up to you"
18 This failed with error message "Invalid argument"
19
20 I have searched the internet , but I didn't find
21 useful information . The password is right , it
22 can work on windows system .So what's wrong
23 with it?
