Hi everybody!
I had a similar problem as Jan Setzer reported. ("Problem setting up
secure AP")
Yesterday I tried an update of my Asus WL-500gP. It crashed updating uclib
leaving me with an unusable device where almost every command lead
to "Bus error". (disk full?)
After reflashing it with a new 1.0.3 firmware from the web image builder
(11326FC1306) I had my box back. Thanks to the persistent /etc partition
all my setting were preserved. But I could not establish wireless WPA
connections. By the way: I'm almost sure I've chosen WL500gP in the Web
Image Builder, but freewrt.config.gz says
(...)
FWRT_LINUX_2_4_BRCM_ASUS_WL500G=y
# FWRT_LINUX_2_4_BRCM_ASUS_WL500G_DELUXE is not set
# FWRT_LINUX_2_4_BRCM_ASUS_WL500G_PREMIUM is not set
(...)
After 5 hours, at 3 AM I knew why: my old PSK contained an "$" character.
A simple test shows that a PSK like "xtestXtestx" works fine, whilst a
PSK "xtest$testx" leads to
# ifdown eth2; ifup eth2
eth2: ignore i/f due to error(s)
I also noticed that every time "ifup eth2" is called by hand, *two* new
instances of nas are spawned which also makes WPA unusable.
I would fill a bug report, but http://www.freewrt.org/trac/ is down, due
to Trac's internal python error...
Below you will find my network configuration file in case the might be
important.
