Hey guys I'm trying to get my wireless card to work, so I installed this package by running the following:
| Code: | | emerge net-wireless/wpa_supplicant |
Just to let you know I have a Broadcom 4328, The config for my WPA network looks like this (/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf snippet):
| Code: | network={ ssid "foo"
#proto=WPA
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
#pairwise=TKIP
#group=TKIP
psk=........
} |
I tried the ASCII key and the one generated with the following:
It's still not connecting, any ideas? |

are you using ndiswrapper or something more broadcom-specifc as your driver?
If you're going the broadcom route, is the firmware in the correct place?

If you want a decent driver that works because it's made by broadcom, take a look at this bug report. I recommend the 5_10_27_14 ebuild as I know that version supports your device.
Blessed be!
