I'm running 8.1-RELEASE GENERIC kernel, with an Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200BG (bought Sept 2006).
According to iwi(4) and iwifw(4), I have in my loader.config
and according to the handbook section 31.3.3.1.3.1 WPA-PSK I put in
in wpa_supplicant.conf I have
First, I run the wireless network with no encryption:
I get scan results, wlan0 is in status associated but xconsole reports
these messages are very frequent, doing
shows no
further error messages (can supply log if this helps)
When I reboot I try to join my wireless network with WPA enabled:
things grind to a halt...
...I have to terminate wpa_supplicant.
xconsole again repeatedly says
just before this message wpa_supplicant says it's
Am I missing something (i.e. correct config)?
Any help (including maybe reasons to ditch HW!) much appreciated.
