I have a nice wpa_supplicant config set up so it automatically chooses a
good nework in most places i travel to...
However at my in-law's house I have an intel 2011b access point that wpa
_supplicant can't seem to assocate with.
There is no WPA - or even WEP enabled, it accepts broadcast addresses.
I can associate with the AP if i turn off wpa_supplicant and manually
associate.
What might be wrong?
Here's the config snippit
network={
ssid="ppwn"
# bssid=00:03:47:b4:c2:3b
key_mgmt=NONE
scan_ssid=1
priority=100
}
i've tried it with and without scan_ssid=1 and with and without the bssid
here's the result of running sudo wpa_supplicant -Dmadwifi -iath0
-c/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -ddd
Received 543 bytes of scan results (3 BSSes)
Scan results: 3
Selecting BSS from priority group 100
0: 00:03:47:b4:c2:3b ssid='ppwn' wpa_ie_len=20 rsn_ie_len=0 caps=0x1
wpa_parse_wpa_ie_wpa: ie count botch (pairwise), count 0 left 6
skip WPA IE - parse failed
1: 00:03:47:14:86:45 ssid='ppwn' wpa_ie_len=20 rsn_ie_len=0 caps=0x1
wpa_parse_wpa_ie_wpa: ie count botch (pairwise), count 0 left 6
skip WPA IE - parse failed
2: 00:14:bf:c8:b6:7f ssid='FIOS' wpa_ie_len=0 rsn_ie_len=0 caps=0x11
skip - no WPA/RSN IE
I don't understand why wpa_ie_len=20 - it should be 0 i think.
Then this business about "parse failed" does not turn anything up in a
google search (other than the source code)
I can't find anything in the AP settings that look like it would ask for
wpa...
any suggestions?
