i get the following trying to connect to my router:

Code:

spyder ~ # /etc/init.d/net.eth1 restart
 * Stopping eth1
 *   Bringing down eth1
 *     Shutting down eth1 ...                                             [ ok ]
 *     Stopping wpa_cli on eth1 ...                                       [ ok ]
 *     Stopping wpa_supplicant on eth1 ...                                [ ok ]
 * Starting eth1
 *   Starting wpa_supplicant on eth1 ...
ioctl[PRISM54_HOSTAPD]: Operation not supported
wpa_driver_prism54_set_countermeasures - not yet implemented
ioctl[PRISM54_HOSTAPD]: Operation not supported                           [ ok ]
 *   Starting wpa_cli on eth1 ...                                         [ ok ]
 *     Backgrounding ...


i have read that the prism cards do not support wpa yet, but that might have been outdated news?

my /etc/conf.d/net reads as
Code:

config_eth1=( "dhcp" )
dns_domain_lo=( "localdomain" )
modules=( "wpa_supplicant" )
wpa_supplicant_eth1=( "-Dprism54" )


and my /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf reads as
Code:

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant

network={
        ssid="spankme"
        key_mgmt=NONE
        wep_key0="<some wep key>"
        wep_tx_keyidx=0
        priority=5
        auth_alg=SHARED
}


dmesg says that the card supports 104-bit key. does this mean i have to provide it a 104 bit key? or change the encryption to that? for some reason i do recall having gotten wpa to work with this card, but i am not sure anymore, having made changes so many times. any thoughts would be appreciated.
