Im having a heck of a time getting wep to work with either iwconfig or wpa_supplicant, ive followed the how-to, read over the wiki pages, and looked at the example file in /etc and i still cannot get it to let me connect with WEP, i can see the AP, get the freg/voltage etc, but i cant get an ip from it. my setup is this: i have a wireless access point at home that i want to connect to using WEP and also an AP at the office that i want to connect to using WEP, i can connect to both with WEP turned off, so i know my wireless is working. does someone have a similar setup on their machine that they could possibly post their config file? either conf.d/net or conf.d/wireless or both, (im just using /net per the how-tos)
my config as of now looks like this: modules=( "wpa_supplicant" ) wpa_supplicant_eth1="-prism54" wpa_timeout_eth1=30 #associate_order="any" #essid_eth1="any" #preferred_aps=( "computernick" ) #associate_order_eth1="any" key_computernick="s:c0mputernick! enc open" #key_ESSID2="[1] s:CE73E751EE [1] enc open" #preferred_aps=( "ESSID1" ) #config_ESSID1=( "dhcp" ) #fallback_ESSID1=( "192.168.0.55/24 brd 192.168.0.255" ) #fallback_route_ESSID1=( "default via 192.168.0.69" ) #config_ESSID2=( "dhcp" ) #fallback_ESSID2=( "192.168.1.200/24 brd 192.168.1.255" ) #fallback_route_ESSID2=( "default via 192.168.1.2" ) #dhcpcd_eth0="-t 15" #dhcpcd_eth1="-t 15" i commented out alot of stuff for troubleshooting purposes but it didnt help. i cant get either one to connect with WEP enabled. i want to try to get wpa working because from what i have read and heard it is more advanced that iwconfig, lets you connect to wpa enc and i think it does scanning as well. any help or a config file would be greatly appreciated. thanks Nick -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
