Wpa-psk And 3.5.4

[sojourner]

Just flashed to Opie 3.5.4 using the 32-32 zImage on my collie and everything looks great with the exception of WPA-PSK CCMP on my Ambicom WL1100C.

I'm using the same wpa_supplicant.conf I used under 3.5.3 with no problems. I wrestled with it for a few hours and flashed back to 3.5.3 just to see if I missed something but after flashing and immediately starting up the wpa_supplicant in debug mode (hostap) it connected up with no issues. I did not need to make any changes under 3.5.3.

Flashed back to 3.5.4 and still no go. Disabling encryption works fine on 3.5.4 with this card but that isn't an option.

Any ideas out there? I've searched high and low to no avail.

Here is what i get from running "wpa_supplicant -Dhostap -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -dd":

Code: [Select]

Same command and config works under 3.5.3

wpa_supplicant.conf looks like this:

Code: [Select]

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=0
eapol_version=1
ap_scan=1
network={
   ssid="lamessid"
   proto=WPA
   psk="somelamepassphrase"
   key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
   pairwise=CCMP
   group=CCMP
   priority=1
}

Looks like I'll have to go back to 3.5.3:

TuxMobil

The card no longer works with 3.5.4

I'd be willing to test changes to the hostap drivers in order to get this to work if any developers have time to mess with them.

Hmm, it seems I'm not alone. I haven't 3.5.3 flashed before, so I didn't know thats problem of collie wpa support. I'm trying to get it working over the week. I'm try to use TKIP, evrithing seems to be set correctly but wpa_supplicant still returning:

Code: [Select]

But intresting is this:

Code: [Select]

Paradox is, that wpa support was main thing why I flashed to 3.5.4

Have you submitted a bug or asked on the openzaurus mailing lists?

I know nothing about this subject, a bug or mailinglist question will get you far more exposure to the OZ devs.

Thanks for advice. Bug 819 submitted.

May be I'll try 3.5.3 too.

Thanks for the tip lardman, didn't even think of it.

nax: thanks for submitting the bug.

Update.

Hrw has uploaded a new wpa_supplicant (wpa-supplicant_0.4.8-r1_arm.ipk) to the upgrades feed that resolves Bug #819.

Note that with the Ambicom WL1100C you will need to use -Dwext instead of -Dhostap when starting wpa_supplicant.

Kudos to Hrw for the speedy resolution.
