I've recently subscribed to AT&T's u-verse which came with a |
2 |
2wire 3800hgv-b wireless gateway. On the windows side, my |
3 |
dual-booting Dell laptop picked up the signal and connected |
4 |
trivially. I've had no such success on the linux side. |
5 |
|
6 |
The gateway claims to use WPA-PSK authentication and TKIP |
7 |
encryption. My supplicant.conf file looks like: |
8 |
|
9 |
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant |
10 |
|
11 |
network={ |
12 |
ssid="my_ssid" |
13 |
psk="my_password" |
14 |
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK |
15 |
proto=WPA |
16 |
pairwise=TKIP |
17 |
} |
18 |
|
19 |
wpa_gui provides the following information for a few seconds: |
20 |
|
21 |
adapter: ath0 |
22 |
network: 0: my_ssid |
23 |
status: SCANNING |
24 |
last message: Disconnect event - remove keys |
25 |
authentication: |
26 |
encryption: |
27 |
ssid: |
28 |
bssid: |
29 |
ip address: |
30 |
|
31 |
then displays: |
32 |
|
33 |
adapter: ath0 |
34 |
network: 0: my_ssid |
35 |
status: 4WAY_HANDSHAKE |
36 |
last message: ASSOCIATED WITH 00:22:a4:0d:23:89 |
37 |
authentication: WPA-PSK |
38 |
encryption: TKIP |
39 |
ssid: my_ssid |
40 |
bssid: 00:22:a4:0d:23:89 |
41 |
ip address: |
42 |
|
43 |
and then cycles between these two sets of information. |
44 |
|
45 |
I can't pretend that I understand what's going on, and I haven't |
46 |
found any enlightenment in web searches. Does anyone know |
47 |
what this means, where I'm stuck, and how to go forward? |
48 |
|
49 |
Thanks for any help, |
