 Posted: Sun Oct 16, 2005 8:44 pm Post subject: Anybody got a HowTo for wpa_supplicant/madwifi/LinksysWRT54G |
 |
|
I've read several threads on this, but nothing seems to be helping me and I'm entering day 4 
I know somebody out there has the same setup as I have, so if you have a minute, can you post your configs, tips, router setup, or anything helpful? I moved back from openwrt to the regular linksys firmware and I'm trying to setup wpa with a pre shared key.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
wpa_supplicant - 0.4.4
madwifi_driver-0.1_pre20050420-r1
| Code: |
# wpa_supplicant -iath0 -c/home/kris/wpa_supplicant.conf -Dmadwifi -d
ioctl[SIOCSIWPMKSA]: Operation not supported
|
That's all the output I get until I start wpa_gui which just loops between trying to assosciate with my router, failing, and scanning (which according to iwlist, my card doesn't support)
This is the output of wpa_supplicant after killing the gui
| Code: |
CTRL_IFACE monitor[0]: sendmsg: Connection refused
CTRL_IFACE monitor[0]: sendmsg: Connection refused
CTRL_IFACE monitor[0]: sendmsg: Connection refused
CTRL_IFACE monitor[0]: sendmsg: Connection refused
CTRL_IFACE monitor[0]: sendmsg: Connection refused

What does your wpa_supplicant.conf look like?

I'm using that setup as well. Is your router broadcasting it's SSID?

That's probably looking a little weird.. It's the latest incarnation of things that don't work.
Yep. I'm broadcasting the ssid.. The wpa_gui sees it, but doesn't associate. BTW, I did have a lot more things in group field, but I removed them since the router just said TKIP.

Thanks for the replies by the way.
I do have the madwifi stuff in there.
| Code: |
modules=( "wpa_supplicant" )
wpa_supplicant_ath0="-Dmadwifi"
wpa_timeout_ath0=60
preferred_aps=( "mulbwifi" )
config_mulbwifi=( "dhcp" )
#routes_mulbwifi=( "default via 192.168.1.1" )
|
I did have it set up with a static, but got (and still get using dhcp) Could not assign address...
I'll try the additions to the conf file. I think I'm screwing my key somehow. Is it right to put it in plain text like that? does it need to be hex or anything?

I switched to a project that didn't piss me off for awhile, so I'll give a hex key a try 
mulbwifi is the name of the AP
