Russell, The .conf file had the "your ESSID here" in quotes, but not the PSK. I assumed that was meaningful. Anyway, my Web searches found others with the same problem, but putting the PSK in double quotes does not always solve the problem. Here, when I quote the PSK I see a related, but different error: root@pachy /etc]# wpa_supplicant -Dwext -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf ioctl[SIOCSIWSCAN]: Device or resource busy Failed to initiate AP scan. Trying to associate with 20:cf:30:88:cc:2b (SSID='AESi' freq=2462 MHz) Authentication with 20:cf:30:88:cc:2b timed out. Trying to associate with 20:cf:30:88:cc:2b (SSID='AESi' freq=2462 MHz) ... And this continues until I press ^C. I also tried 'killall -HUP wpa_supplicant' and wicd-client but still cannot connect. My other portable has no problem connecting which makes this all the more puzzling.
