Since my Linksys WRT54G V1 died and was replaced with a V5 (Yes, I know it was a mistake.), I have
been unable to authenticate using WPA-PSK TKIP with bcm43xx-softmac. I'm sure that my wpa_supplicant
setup is OK as it has not been changed since the AP was changed, and the system works if I use
ndiswrapper with the Windows driver.

Why does SoftMAC set a generic IE rather than get one from wpa_supplicant? I would appreciate help
with this problem.
