TIA

Spectral: you are using OZ3.5.4? That must be the reason

Yes I am using OZ3.5.4 and not the updated alphas.
I suppose we now have a WPA solution for the 3.5.4.x OZ tree.

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Success With Wpa-psk On 3.5.4

I use the same wpa_supplicant.conf file.

My card is Planex GW-CF11X
Firmware version: NIC 1.0.0 PRI: 1.1.2 STA: 1.8.4

I just found a funny error in dmesg, maybe the clue to the problem:
ieee80211_crypt_tkip: could not allocate crypto API michael_mic

I have to find Michael_mic now!!

This is perculiar coz I never had that MIC problem.
I dont even had ieee80211_crypt _tkip loaded, instead
I see hostap_crypt_tkip loaded.....

thx for notice - will add conflict/replace for it

BTW - can you write HowTo about OZ 3.5.4x and WPA?

I was editing the post while you were replying  Maybe Spectral can give feedback... I noticed wpa_supplicant is not compiled with hostap support but just generic wireless extensions. Dunno if that matters...

I'll be happy to post a WPA howto on OpenZaurus.org and OESF.org as soon as it works!

The wpa_supplicant that I compiled was using the default defconfig
that came with the source, so hostap and wext is enabled.

I tried the updated wpa_supplicant from OZ feed and although
it didnt support "-Dhostap", specifying wext works fine for me.
So I am not sure if hostap support is the problem here coz
both "-Dhostap" and "-Dwext" works for me.

I am using a SMC2642 card (prism) which I had flashed
with updated firmware (NIC:1.0.0, PRI:1.1.1, STA:1.8.2).

Could you check if your Wifi card has the supported
firmware (STA>=1.7.0, if I remember correctly)?

Here is my wpa_supplicant.conf if its of any help
(I suggest your specify only TKIP and nothing-else):

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=0
eapol_version=1
ap_scan=1

network={
   ssid="Your SSID"
   scan_ssid=1
   proto=WPA
   key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
   pairwise=TKIP
   group=TKIP
   psk="Your PSK"
   priority=0
}

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Success With Wpa-psk On 3.5.4

Just wish to inform everyone that I have succeeded with WPA-PSK
on 3.5.4. I earlier reported (and perhaps its the same issue reported by some
of the others) that I was getting "no WPA/RSN len" error.

The problem was because OZ feed was still using wpa_supplicant 0.2.6 which
is not compatible with the hostap version in use (version 0.3.9 before upgrade
and 0.4.7 after upgrade). I recompiled wpa_supplicant 0.4.8 which was released
together with hostap 0.4.7, on my own and WPA-PSK works fine for me now.

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Wpa Problem On 3.5.4

« on: April 09, 2006, 09:33:03 am »

Already submitted bug 819. You can find others with same problem in this thread. Can you try replace hostap modules in 3.5.4 with those who are in 3.5.4RC and try if problem is here or do same with wpa_supplicant?

I really want to have wpa-psk working with my zaurus but I don't have access to RC.
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=122375\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Its the same here... I switched from the default Sharp Rom
to 3.5.4 mainly for its WPA support. And in my haste I
also deleted 3.5.4RC because it just wasnt stable enough.
This release looks alot more stable but alas WPA is not
working like before...

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Wpa Problem On 3.5.4

« on: April 09, 2006, 12:13:48 am »

Has anyone been successful with WPA on 3.5.4 (SL5500)?

I now seem to have "No WPA/RSN IE" in the errorlog
when using wpa_supplicant. AP scanning works fine tho..
I am using the same configuration and hardware and
it used to work right-out-of-the-box for 3.5.4RC.
(yes, scan_ssid is set to 1 too)
