 Posted: Sat Jul 15, 2006 9:52 am Post subject: ipw2200-1.1.3 broken [SOLVED] |
 |
|
While wpa_supplicant works like a charme with ipw2200-1.1.2-r1, it doesn't do with ipw2200-1.1.3. It's getting a timeout, instead. Running wpa_supplicant with a 1.1.3 module from the command line gives:
| Code: |
r2d2 ~ # wpa_supplicant -Dwext -ieth1 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
Trying to associate with 00:16:b6:1d:6d:c7 (SSID='Secret' freq=0 MHz)
CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED - Disconnect event - remove keys
WPA: 4-Way Handshake failed - pre-shared key may be incorrect
|
Of course, the pre-shared key is correct, as it is working and connecting to the AP with version 1.1.2-r1 of ipw2200. The frequency (0 MHz) seems to be an issue, however. Any ideas, anyone?

it works for me but sometimes it needs more than one try to complete
| Code: | Trying to associate with 00:13:46:89:c6:f1 (SSID='Secret' freq=0 MHz)
Associated with 00:13:46:89:c6:f1

did you set in /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf?

Setting this makes no difference for me, ipw2200-1.1.3 still not working. Thank you anyway.

I also had problems with version 1.1.3. When starting from the command line with:
wpa_supplicant -Dwext -ieth1 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
I got:
Trying to associate with 00:13:f7:0f:36:ac (SSID='SMC' freq=0 MHz)

...until interrupt.
With version 1.1.2-r1 all went fine. So, i just emerged again the 1.1.2-r1 version and again, all worked ok. Just to be sure, update again, problems back.
There must be a problem with this 1.1.3 version...

I'm back to the in-kernel version of ipw2200 again. At the end of the last year, I switched from the in-kernel version to the external (portage) one, because in-kernel ipw2200 had stopped functioning then. Now it is the other way around. I'm very happy to see again that there *is* at least one way to keep things going with Gentoo

Here is how I got ipw2200-1.1.3 working with kernel 2.6.16-gentoo-r13:
Basically I followed the wiki but first I cleaned everything up.
First I unmerged the pertinent files:
| Code: |
emerge -aC net-wireless/ieee80211-1.1.13-r1 net-wireless/wireless-tools-28 net-wireless/ipw2200-firmware-3.0 net-wireless/ipw2200-1.1.3 net-wireless/wpa_supplicant-0.4.9
|
Then I made a tarball of /lib/modules/2.6.16-gentoo-r13 just in case.
Then I removed the following:
/lib/modules/2.6.16-gentoo-r13/net/ieee80211
/lib/modules/2.6.16-gentoo-r13/net/wireless
/lib/modules/2.6.16-gentoo-r13/kernel/net/ieee80211
Then I ran:
| Code: |
/bin/sh /usr/portage/net-wireless/ieee80211/files/remove-old /usr/src/linux |
to clean up the source tree. I also checked to make sure none of the modules where being built by the kernel just to keep it clean if I rebuild the kernel.
| Code: |
# grep -i ieee80211 .config
#CONFIG_IEEE80211=m
# CONFIG_IEEE80211_DEBUG is not set
#CONFIG_IEEE80211_CRYPT_WEP=m
# CONFIG_IEEE80211_CRYPT_CCMP is not set
# CONFIG_IEEE80211_CRYPT_TKIP is not set
# grep -i ipw2200 .config
# CONFIG_IPW2200 is not set
|
Then I emerged:
| Code: |
emerge -av net-wireless/ieee80211-1.1.13-r1 net-wireless/wireless-tools-28 net-wireless/ipw2200-firmware-3.0 net-wireless/ipw2200-1.1.3 net-wireless/wpa_supplicant-0.4.9 |
Here are my config files if someone needs them.
| Code: |
# cat /etc/conf.d/wireless
modules=( "wpa_supplicant" )
# As of kernel 2.6.15 (and probably earlier), Centrino users have to use
wpa_supplicant_eth1="-Dwext"
wpa_timeout_eth1=10
essid_eth1="wrt-link"
preferred_aps=( "wrt-link" )
config_eth1=( "192.168.1.5 netmask 255.255.255.0" )
routes_eth1=( "default gw 192.168.1.1" )
# cat /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=0
eapol_version=1
ap_scan=2
fast_reauth=1
network={
ssid="wrt-link"
proto=WPA
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
pairwise=TKIP
group=TKIP
psk="secretpassword"
}
|
After a few days of fussing with this problem this is what finally did it for me. |

| Even after trying the posted solution mine still failed to connect with the same problems. After moving back to 1.1.2-r1 I am able to successfully connect again. |
