Hey there people,
I've been trying to get Ubuntu to play nice with my WPA-PSK enabled router but have no luck.
Open/WEP works fine but WPA-PSK is a giant PITA.
I've tried ndiswrapper with wpa_supplicant and lots more (I can't remember so feel free to suggest again) and currently wpa_supplicant with the native ipw2100 driver seemed to work.
Here's the output when I run wpa_supplicant -ieth1 -dd -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -Dipw2100 as root
Here's the interesting part:

No suitable AP found.

It doesn't seem to detect WPA enabled?
Heres the rest of the ouput, sorry for not highlighting the important parts

This card works fine on Windows and my mates are currently connected to the AP (WPA-PSK).
Here's my wpa_supplicant.conf

Here's output from iwconfig:
I'm outta ideas. Anyone help?
Thanks a bunch!
