I'm stuck trying to get the USB Wifi dongle to work with the TS-7800. TS claims this should be a straightforward debian configuration, but I'm not so sure. I was following the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo, which seem pretty vanilla.
I first did:
# iwconfig
which produced:
eth0 no wireless extensions.
lo no wireless extensions.
eth1 IEEE 802.11b/g ESSID:"" Nickname:"zd1211"
Mode:Managed Access Point: Invalid
Encryption key:off
Link Quality:0/100 Signal level:-144 dBm Noise level:0 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
That seemed helpful, as it seems to know about the dongle and it's calling it eth1. I then did:
# wpa_passphrase my_ssid my_passwd
which generated:
network={
ssid="my_ssid"
#psk="my_passwd"
psk=...long number...
}
So I added to the bottom of /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
network={
ssid="my_ssid"
#psk="my_passwd"
psk=...long number...
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
proto=WPA
}
But if I do:
wpa_supplicant -ieth1 -Dwext -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -w I get a bunch of lines that look like: Trying to associate with {MAC address here} (SSID='my_ssid' freq=0 MHz)
Associated with {MAC address here}
ioctl[SIOCSIWENCODEEXT]: Invalid argument
WPA: Failed to set PTK to the driver.
CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED - Disconnect event - remove keys It looks like ioctl[SIOCSIWENCODEEXT]: Invalid argument may be the culprit, but when I tried Googling that in various incarnations, I got nowhere
. Can anyone help? Many TIA, Craig __._,_.___
