Dear list,|
I would like to set up an AP on an Atheros PCI WLAN Card that uses WPA
encryption. Everything works fine, but the network is also accessible
without any encryption at all.I use madwifi-ng|-0.9.4 and||
hostapd-||0.6.3.
What do I have to do so that only clients that know the PSK can connect
to my WLAN?
# iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.
dummy0 no wireless extensions.
tunl0 no wireless extensions.
wifi0 no wireless extensions.
