I tried today both 'ifconfig' and 'wpa_supplicant'; I comme to 'associated/connected' , no IP that said, the key they provide me really is 26 characters, I have to split it in twice 13 to get it accepted both by 'ifconfig' and 'wpa_supplicant' which is very probably wrong .... Couldn't find (quickly) anything on iff and howto for 26 caracter keys > Although wpa_supplicant message states that it connected successfully > to the network. Can you try to set the address by hand(taking some > earlier info from windows machine)? nope, 'ping' (probably filtered) to defaultroute and DNS-lookup both fail More later, thanx for your help.
