wicd with WPA2 fails
in [Debian]

From: Paul Scott on 14 Jul 2010 21:40 sid fully updated wicd connects fine if I turn wireless security on the WRT54G2 router off. When I set the router to WPA2 - AES I get (from wicd.log) 2010/07/14 17:40:41 :: iwconfig eth2 2010/07/14 17:40:41 :: WPA_CLI RESULT IS SCANNING 2010/07/14 17:40:42 :: wpa_supplicant authentication may have failed. 2010/07/14 17:40:42 :: connect result is Failed 2010/07/14 17:40:42 :: exiting connection thread 2010/07/14 17:40:43 :: Sending connection attempt result bad_pass 2010/07/14 17:40:43 :: ifconfig eth0 2010/07/14 17:40:43 :: ifconfig eth2 2010/07/14 17:40:43 :: Forced disconnect on 2010/07/14 17:40:43 :: attempting to set hostname with dhclient 2010/07/14 17:40:43 :: using dhcpcd or another supported client may work better TIA for any help, Paul Scott -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Try starting "wp_supplicant" in debug mode to make the log more verbose about that error. It seems failing at some point of the authentication. Also, try to lower the security a bit by choosing WPA-PSK (TKIP) or WPA2- PSK (AES+TKIP) instead just AES. Stronger encryption requires better coberture so devices can "dialogue" smoothly.

It seems failing at some point of the authentication. wicd calls wpa_supplicant with wext. I don't see a preferences setting to change to cause more debugging. > Also, try to lower the security a bit by choosing WPA-PSK (TKIP) or WPA2- > PSK (AES+TKIP) instead just AES. Stronger encryption requires better > coberture so devices can "dialogue" smoothly. I just tried as many variations as I could without success. I'm not 100% sure I am always matching the router settings with the laptop wicd settings.
