I have been using wireless successfully for about a month, until I
upgraded madwifi-ng last night.   Since then wireless has not
worked.   I have a netgear wireless router which supplies the
wireless signal, and the configuration of this router has not
changed.  And  wireless works fine from the same box when I
boot Windows.  So, the problem seems to be related to the
madwifi-ng upgrade.

No configuration files were changed - at least etc-update didn't
report any.

In /var/log/messages,, I find the following:

rc-scripts: WEP key is not set for "NETGEAR" - not connecting

Well... of course it isn't - my router uses WPA encryption,
and always has.  My /etc/conf.d/net and
/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa
_supplicant.conf files are straight from
the gentoo handbook:

/etc/conf.d/net:

modules=( "wpa_supplicant" )
wpa_supplicant_ath0="-Dmadwifi"
modules=( "dhcpcd" )
config_ath0=( "dhcp" )
dhcpcd_ath0="-t 10 -s 192.168.1.101 "
dhcp_ath0="release nodns nontp nonis"
nis_domain_ath-=" mydomain.org"

/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf:

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=0
ap_scan=1
network={
     ssid="NETGEAR"
     psk="xxx"
     priority=5
}


So, why does the rc-script suddenly think I'm using WEP encryption
?

Thanks for any and all ideas.

John Blinka
