Hello, I'm trying to connect to my AP, using:
Code:
Atheros Communication AR50056
I think my OS recognized it correctly, but I have problems with connection. First some more info, that may help you to help me
Code:
ifconfig

And now iwconfig:
Code:
iwconfig

It seams to look OK?
What I have done to connect? First I installed two applications, that should help me: network-manager and wifi-radar. When I try to run first one, it doesn't recognize any AP. I've got only error message:
Code:
sudo NetworkManager --no-daemon
NetworkManager: <information> starting...
NetworkManager: <information> eth0: Device is fully-supported using driver '8139too'.
NetworkManager: <information> nm_device_init(): waiting for device's worker thread to start

NetworkManager: <information> Now managing wired Ethernet (802.3) device 'eth0'.

And nm-ap photo:

Something is wrong ... when I run
it show my two available APs.
Next I tried wifi-radar. It show my two available APs:
http://7thguard.net/files/przeglad_w...iradar_th.png( example photo ), but I can't connect. They use WPA, but I can't configure it
Why network-manager don't show my APs? It's problem with my card or with WPA configuration? How can I configure WPA ( with GUI
)? Please help me
