[SOLVED] Can't authenticate to WPA network

netsense · 08-22-2010, 07:59 PM

Hi, and if you can help, thank you.

I have a TP-Link Atheros-based USB card: TL-WN422G. It's listed widely as being compatible, but I'm baffled if I can make it work.

I'm running an ndiswrapper (XP-64) driver, and that seems to be loaded and recognizing the hardware correctly. The system can scan and correctly identify our network, and other nearby ones, but when the WPA key is entered (correctly, I've triple checked), the "Secrets" windows just keeps popping up and no IP is acquired. I've installed and tried toi configure it with wpa-supplicant, all to no avail.

Can anyone help?

I've attached below a (long, sorry) list of various outputs that I've looked at.

Thanks, Edwin.

Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS (Kubuntu); 2.6.32-24-server x86_64
