I know the Airo driver can be used for dynamic WEP, but I haven't ever
heard of it being used for Network EAP as the 802.11 auth mode.  The
cards have some firmware support for LEAP internally (there are internal
chip registers for LEAP username and password) so the firmware might
well trap LEAP responses.  Who knows.

What supplicant version are you running?  There's a fix in later
versions that helps airo get the right keys (ie, IW_ENCODE_TEMP).
