128bit WEP
Does FreeBSD support 128bit WEP? I have a Atheros based card and would like to connect to an ap that is using 128bit WEP. When I try to connect using the 128bit wep key ifconfig says I am using a 104bit key and I get alot of could not associate for reason 25 in dmesg. Speaking of which I have not been able to find a list of reasons so I can figure out what reason 25 is. P.S. I know WEP is lame, and do not need 50 emails in response to this email telling me so. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: 128bit WEP
The actual key length is 104 bits for 128 bit WEP encryption. Double check the manpage for wi and post your ifconfig line.. Also.. what card are you using.. what does the kernel say about the firmware version? Hope this helps..

Double check your SSID on the AP and make sure it matches the 'ifconfig...' you have. Also might try explicitly specifying *which* weptxkey (1-4) you are using in ifconfig. Also, for what its worth my atheros cards do not work well in g with my AP (WRT54G)... I had to set it to b. So you might try that till you get it on its feet. Just my 2 cents.

Are you trying to set the SSID=BSSID or soething like that? http://www.mpirical.com/companion/mpirical_companion.html The BSSID is a 48bit identity used to identify a particular BSS (Basic Service Set) within an area. In Infrastructure BSS networks, the BSSID is the MAC (Medium Access Control) address of the AP (Access Point) and in Independent BSS or ad hoc networks, the BSSID is generated randomly. The Service Set Identifier or Network Name is used within IEEE 802.11 networks to identify a particular network. It is usually set by the administrator setting up the WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) and will be unique within a BSS (Basic Service Set) or ESS (Extended Service Set). The SSID may be broadcast from an AP (Access Point) within the wireless network to enable Stations to determine which network to Associate with. However, this feature should be disabled as it may assist hackers, or wardrivers in gaining access to a private network. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
