Solved: ipw2200 + wpa...another

[tsunam]

Alright slightly different from some peoples. I recently had to reinstall the laptop and getitng the ipw2200 with wpa is being a bit of a pain

The odd thing currently is that if i issue

#wpa_supplicant -ieth1 -Dipw -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
ioctl[SIOCSIWSCAN{,EXT}]: Operation not supported
Failed to initiate AP scan.
Trying to associate with 00:0f:66:31:5e:94 (SSID='Ayu' freq=0 MHz)
Associated with 00:0f:66:31:5e:94
WPA: Key negotiation completed with 00:0f:66:31:5e:94 [PTK=TKIP GTK=TKIP]

It associates and if i do a dhcpcd eth1, it'll get a dhcp address.

however if i try it with the init scripts it won't associate

Info:

* net-wireless/ipw2200
Available versions: 1.0.1 ~1.0.2
Installed: 1.0.2
Homepage: http://ipw2200.sourceforge.net
Description: Driver for the Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG/2915ABG miniPCI and 2225BG PCI adapters

* net-wireless/ipw2200-firmware
Available versions: 2.2
Installed: 2.2

Yes the ipw2200-1.0.2 was build from a redigest of the source from sourceforge with the diff patch applied.

/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=0
ap_scan=1
network={
ssid="Ayu"
scan_ssid=1
proto=WPA
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
group=CCMP TKIP WEP104 WEP40
pairwise=TKIP CCMP
#psk="hidden"
psk=hidden
}
(know it works since it can be used in the above running it on its own)

/etc/conf.d/net

modules="wpa_supplicant"
modules="!iwconfig"

ifconfig_eth0="dhcp"
wpa_supplicant_eth1="-Dipw"
ifconfig_e th1="dhcp"

when i run wpa_cli and use the init.d file's i get

<2>Trying to associate with 00:0f:66:31:5e:94 (SSID='Ayu' freq=0 MHz)
<2>Authentication with 00:00:00:00:00:00 timed out.

Not entirely sure why it's not associating thru the scripts but if i do it myself it will. Anyone have any advice?

Solved:

It tends to help to look and see if your net.eth1 is symlinked to net.lo. ~_~

Thanks for the wpa_supplicant.conf, helped me fix up my ipw2200 problems
