Hi, Today I decided to spend some time getting WPA to work on my Netgear ath(4) card. The base station is a Netgear WG602V3. The AP is configured with WPA-PSK (it cannot do anything else). To make sure that things are sortof sound on the AP side I have setup 2 laptops using Windows with WPA. Both work OK. One of these laptops that has the Netgear card and is dual boot with -current. Basically FreeBSD also (but only sortof) works with WPA on the ath(4). I setup a wpa_supplicant.conf taking the 'home network' example from the man page. What I get from wpa_supplicant on a regular interval is: Trying to associate with <MAC of AP> (SSID=<foo> freq=2412MHz) Associated with <MAC of AP> WPA: Key negotiation completeted with <MAC of AP> [PTK=CCMP GTK=TKOP] <some time passes; sometimes dhclient gets IP address and data flows to the outside world correctly> Disconnect event - remove keys <--- why is this? This process repeats itself over and over. Am I missing something obvious? -- Wilko Bulte wilko@FreeBSD.org
