[ccc]

hi

Howto configure WPA2-PSK on the notebook Ausus Eee PC 1000H with ndis module?

It specifically talks about WPA2.

THX, this is a good Manual,
but if I'm using ndis module then do I need in /boot/loader.conf these all lines?

# cat /boot/loader.conf

sound_load="YES"
snd_hda_load="YES"
linux_load="YES"

ndis_load="YES"
if_ndis_load="YES"
rt2860_sys_load="YES"

wlan_scan_ap_load="YES"
wlan_scan_sta_load="YES"
wlan_ccmp_load="YES"
wlan_tkip_load="YES"
wlan_xauth_load="YES"
wlan_acl_load="YES"

I'm relatively certain you don't need the wlan_* lines.

thx, I've removed all wlan_* lines and it seems to work.

I have other question.
My /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf:

# cat /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=wheel
eapol_version=1
ap_scan=2
fast_reauth=1

network={
        scan_ssid=1
        ssid="myessid"
        proto=WPA RSN
        key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
        pairwise=CCMP
        group=CCMP
        psk=mysecretkey
        priority=2
}

is this OK?
Do I need ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant?

If it works, just leave it alone

THX,it works well.

Here is a good wpa_supplicant configuration reference:

BTW howto restart the network or wireless interface including wpa_supplicant without reboot?

 

[adamk]

I already told you how on another thread.

I've tried:

# /etc/rc.d/netif restart

but the defaultrouter gets lost.

 

[Nicholas]

Is defaultrouter="" defined in /etc/rc.conf?

Also run [cmd=]/etc/rc.d/routing[/cmd] restart ...
