Hi,

I've just upgraded from 2.6.18-r1 to 2.6.19-r3 because I hoped that my issues with WPA2/NetworkManager would be solved with this update. NM was unable to connect to my WPA2/CCMP-encrypted network at home as well as somewhere else with 2.6.18-r1, i could however get connected to an TKIP-encrypted network and unencrypted ones.

After upgrading, I got various errors concerning ieee80211 and ipw2100. Now I have ipw2100 compiled as Module (from the kernel) and unmerged the ieee80211 and ipw2100 ebuilds.

NM sees all wireless networks, so the firmware and stuff seems to work, but I can't even connect to an unencrypted network anymore :(

the dmesg output concerning wireless:
Code:

this is networkmanager's output if i try to connect to belkin54g (unencrypted):

Does wpa_supplicant work by itself? IE, don't use NetworkManager.

no, not really. If I try to start wpa_supplicant manually, it gets EAPOL notifications and authentication fails:

#       priority=-9999
#}

network={
        ssid="mywpasid"
        #scan_ssid=1 #this is only needed if you are not broadcasting your network
        proto=WPA2
        key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
        pairwise=CCMP
        group=CCMP
        psk=wpa-key
}

network={
        ssid="kobol"
        #scan_ssid=1
        proto=WPA
        key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
        pairwise=CCMP
        group=TKIP
        psk=wpa-key
}
kobol is the network i could connect to using wpa manually and w/ kernel 2.18-r3

I wanted to try the wireless with portage-ipw2100 and ieee80211, but ran into the same compile error as in this thread: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-3796104.html#3796104

then I've just re-emerged the kernel, unmerged ieee80211 and ipw2100 and recompiled the kernel with exactly the same config as phreak_ suggests in the other thread.

but nothing has changed, my wireless can still see all networks but always fails to authenticate (I'm now trying wpa_supplicant manually most of the time).

anyone any ideas? i need the ability to connect to (at least unencrypted) wireless at university :cry:

whohoo, something's workin, but i can't figure out why or how:
NetworkManager is working, but shows the "no connection" icon. If I use wpa_supplicant, it cant establish a connection to any accesspoint. but I've just typed in iwconfig and this tells me, that I'm connected to belkin54g, thus the unencrypted AP. with dhclient eth1 I can get an IP too.

so, it seems that there is a way, but I really don't know why neither wpa_supplicant nor NM work :(

besides that, i do also wanna be able to connect to my encrypted AP at home (other people with centrino duo notebooks can connect).

yeah, i switched back to 2.6.18-r3 because i couldn't live with the hardly working wifi. I'll try again when i have more time for playing around, that's currently not the case, i fear.
