Hello, I have just acquired a Linksys "Instant Wireless Network PC Card" 802.11b wireless NIC. When plugged into a 6.2 i386 laptop, dmesg reports: wi0: <The Linksys Group, Inc. Instant Wireless Network PC Card> at port 0x100-0x13f irq 11 function 0 config 1 on pccard1 wi0: using RF:PRISM3(PCMCIA) wi0: Intersil Firmware: Primary (1.1.0), Station (1.4.2) wi0: Ethernet address: 00:06:25:18:6e:1d When I attempted to connect to my WPA-PSK WAP, wpa_supplicant(8) just hangs. When I turned off encryption on the WAP, and enter: # dhclient wi0 Then the NIC connects just fine. So the question is, is the NIC or the wi(4) driver incapable of WPA encryption? Thanks for the help. -- Regards, Doug
