Hello friends,
i have installed the new stable image Angstrom-X11-2007.12-R14 from 1.April.
The first test showed an wrong script under /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/wpasupplicant (from Ubuntu, it fails with sed of busybox not knowing --quite) get called.
So i just linked wpa-supplicant to wpasupplicant.
When i try to connect to my WPA-WLAN with an NetGear MA-401RA (Firmware PRI v1.1.1, STA v1.8.2), it will get no connection.
The cards is ok, under simpad i can connect to an open WLAN.
My interfaces looks like
root@simpad:~$ cat /etc/network/interfaces
# /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8)
# The loopback interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# Wireless interfaces
#
#
iface wlan0 inet static
address 192.168.2.7
netmask 255.255.255.0
network 192.168.2.0
broadcast 192.168.2.255
wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
wpa-driver hostap
#
#
and the content of wpa_supplicant.conf is
root@simpad:~$ cat /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=0
eapol_version=1
ap_scan=1
fast_reauth=1
network={
ssid="BlueZone"
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
pairwise=TKIP
group=TKIP
psk="01234567890123"
priority=1
}
network={
ssid="carioca"
key_mgmt=NONE
priority=2
}
I can see my WLAN with iwlist scan :

My router is an Fritz!Box and another embedded linux device, my iLiad (
e-book from iRex) is working fine with WPA-WLAN.
I'm shure my psk is ok, because it contains only digits [0-9] like above ...
Attached is an log of the session with output of various commands (iwconfig, ifconfig, iwscan, lsmod etc.) and more content of /var/log/messages
Did anyone run succsessfully WPA with Angstrom 2007.12 on simpad ?
Or any guesses what else to try/check/do ...

Best regards and thanks to all which work on Angstrom for Simpad
Oliver
