Is there any debugging I can assist with? This is a ndiswrapper Broadcomm 43xx 
wireless laptop connecting to a netgear router.

This isn't something that would be valid with WPA v 1, which I though was 
designed to re-use as many WEP cryptographic algorithms as possible? I could 
understand it being invalid with WPA v 2 which is supposed to use AES.
