wireless connection issues
Posted: Sat Mar 27, 2010 1:09 am
Hi, I moved forward to configure my new setup but somehow I can't seemed to get the wireless connection going. I would appreciate some advice. Thanks.
My wireless configuration (WPA + PSK) looks like this:
According to http://dev.luci.freifunk-halle.net/docs ... riable.wds For WPA and PSK I would need to use "psk" as encryption parameter. I could not find any information on what format the encryption key should be placed in the wireless config file. I assumed plain text. But it does not look to me I'm getting to that stage yet.
my network configuration is default:
When I start my network I get the following:
From what I can see the wireless LED never blinks (not sure if it does blink during setup). What am I doing wrong? Any hint on what I could check?
I reviewed for any additional logs that might give me a clue but nothing going on in there. I would be thankful for any advice I could get to keep this going. Thanks. Regards, Michael
