hi,

I've finally got my wpa2 configuration up and running.
Everytime I started the following message appeared at the end of the init output:

WARNING: net.wlan0 has started, but is inactive

Although it worked.
The only problem is, that I had to shut down eth0 everytime I wanted to use wlan0 to set the gateway right, as wlan0 and eth0 are in the same net.
So I tried bonding the two interfaces together.
That worked quite well, exept that wlan is not working.
When I plug out my ethernet cable the bont stops to work:

Code:
bonding: bond0: making interface eth0 the new active one.
bonding: bond0: first active interface up!
bonding: bond0: enslaving eth0 as an active interface with an up link.
bonding: bond0: Adding slave wlan0.
bonding: bond0: enslaving wlan0 as a backup interface with a down link.
ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): bond0: link becomes ready
bond0: no IPv6 routers present
//here is when I plug out my cable and as you see it doesnt activate or use the wlan device.
r8169: eth0: link down
bonding: bond0: link status definitely down for interface eth0, disabling it
bonding: bond0: now running without any active interface !


I allready tried different modes in modprobe.d/bond.conf
So what can I do to get the wlan0 interface running?

here a few further informations:

Code:
cat /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
update_config=1
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=0
ap_scan=1

network={
        ssid="dorsai.net"
        scan_ssid=1
        proto=WPA2
        pairwise=TKIP
        key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
        group=TKIP
        #psk="thepassphraseiuse"
        psk=thepskiuse
        priority=2
}


Code:
wpa_cli status
Selected interface 'wlan0'
bssid=00:24:01:2b:ac:82
ssid=dorsai.net
id=0
pairwise_cipher=TKIP
group_cipher=TKIP
key_mgmt=WPA2-PSK
wpa_state=COMPLETED


As you see the card has sucessfully authenticated on the AP and seems to work fine from the view of wpa_supplicant.
Code:
ifconfig
