Done some more testing, think this issue is with wpa_supplicant I can connect to non secure and WEP networks, as long as they are not the same SSID as a failed WPA connection.
Sometimes a WPA connection will work if you change the security of a WEP to WPA and re-connect. Will never connect on WPA to my actual network name and password, although has connected on Zippy and testest, as soon as I change the password it fails.
