If it is early build(earlier then 77), wpi doesn't support wpa yet. If it's snv77 - snv94, it supports WPA/PSK only, if it's snv_94+, it support WPA2.
So, please also check the correct build and version. Another simple way to verify whether this driver works is to set up your AP to none or wep encryption firstly. -Cecilia > > > /Regards > Kanwaljit > > cecilia wrote: >> To use dladm, you don't need to create any profile.. >> Just try to connect this broadcom ap then.
