Update on this matter.

 -issued the command:
      	  
			  wpa_supplicant -iwlan0 -Dwext -d -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf	
 -then
      	  
			  dhcpcd wlan0	
Then everything is ok and my wireless works.

My question is why when I issue /etc/init.d/net.wlan0 start it says about the WEP and doesn't connect?

Thank you.[/code]

(I WANT TO CONNECT TO CELL2-baladei-wifi)


-cat  /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
   
 ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
    ctrl_interface_group=wheel
    update_config=0
    fast_reauth=1

    network={
        ssid="baladei-wifi"
        proto=WPA
        key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
        pairwise=CCMP TKIP
        group=CCMP TKIP WEP
        psk="my-password"
        priority=5
        }

-cat /etc/conf.d/net
    modules_wlan0=("dhcpcd" "iwconfig")
   
 wpa_supplicant_wlan0="-Dwext -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf"
    config_wlan0=("dhcp")
    dhcpcd_wlan0="-t 5 -A"

    pre-up(){
    ifconfig wlan0 up
    }

-and the error:
 /etc/init.d/net.wlan0 start
 * Starting
 wlan0
 *   Configuring wireless network for wlan0
 *   WEP key is not set for "baladei-wifi" - not connecting
 *   WEP key is not set for "linksys" - not connecting
 *   Couldn't associate with any access points on wlan0
 *   Failed to configure wireless for wlan0                               [ !! ]

    

I need to connect to my linksys WRT54GL which is set to wpa-personal / wpa algorithm: TKIP, no WEP.



Please advise since I'm getting very confused.


Thank you in advance.
