Dear all!
I have the following problem with wpa supplicant/ipw3945. First the versions: kernel: 2.6.18-mm2 (self compiled) ieee80211: 1.1.14 ipw3945: git source ipw3945d: 1.7.19 wpa supplicant: 0.5.5 (Debian/unstable 0.5.5-1)
Config file of wpa_supplicant: ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant ctrl_interface_group=0 eapol_version=1 ap_scan=1 network={ ssid="norbunet" key_mgmt=NONE auth_alg=SHARED wep_key0=HEXKEY1 wep_key1=HEXKEY2 wep_key2=HEXKEY3 wep_key3=HEXKEY4 wep_tx_keyidx=0 priority=5 } When I start ipw3945d and wpa_supplicant it does not connect. And the reason is that when typing iwconfig eth2 (eth0 cable, eth1 not present!?!, eth2 ipw3945) I see that the ESSID is set to "norbune" instead of "norbunet"
Calling iwconfig eth2 essid "norbunet " (mind the space at the end) immediately connects (even with encryption) and everything is working.
Do you have any idea what this might be related to?
The last kernel I tried which worked out of the box (well, with comnpiling ieee and ipw) was 2.6.18-rc4.
Best wishes
Norbert
