Hi! I installed rt2x00 from debian sid repository (http://packages.debian.org/sid/rt2x00-source) with modules-assistant and I edited /etc/udev/rules.d/z25_persistent-net.rules.
The card works properly without encryption, but if I enable wpa, I got those errors:

Code:

# wpa_supplicant -Dwext -ira0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpasupplicant.conf
ioctl[SIOCSIWAUTH]: Operation not supported
WEXT auth param 4 value 0x0 - ioctl[SIOCSIWAUTH]: Operation not 
supported
WEXT auth param 5 value 0x1 - ioctl[SIOCGIWSCAN]: Resource temporarily 
unavailable
Trying to associate with <myMAC> (SSID='myssid' freq=2437 MHz)
ioctl[SIOCSIWAUTH]: Operation not supported
WEXT auth param 5 value 0x1 - Authentication with 00:00:00:00:00:00 
timed out.
Trying to associate with <myMAC> (SSID='myssid' freq=2437 MHz)
ioctl[SIOCSIWAUTH]: Operation not supported
WEXT auth param 5 value 0x1

This is my wpa_supplicant.conf:

Code:

network={
                ssid="myssid"
                scan_ssid=0
                proto=WPA
                psk="mypassword"
}

Kernel version is 2.6.22 (http://packages.debian.org/sid/linux-image-2.6.22-2-686)

It is very hard to tell exactly what is shipped by distros who are currently picking out one version of mac80211 and possibly different versions of the accompanying drivers.

There was a bug in mac80211 a few weeks back that caused any driver using software decryption (which includes all rt2x00 devices) to fail to decrypt.

If that's the problem you've got you might be able to track down the post from Mattias Nissler titled [Rt2400-devel] [PATCH] mac80211: Defer setting of RX_FLAG_DECRYPTED posted 07/10/2007 15:35 that contains the patch.

I am also using Debian packages, wpa_supplicant and rt2500pci and it works for me.
Instead of editing udev rules, I added the option wpa-roam /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf in my /etc/network/interfaces file.

Anyways I would suggest that you try to use wpa_supplicant by hand first.

I'm runing this script for wpa supplicant:

Code:

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant

network={
        ssid="eduroam"
        key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
        auth_alg=OPEN
        eap=TTLS
        phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"
        identity="lXXXX@alunos.uevora.pt"
        anonymous_identity="lXXXXX@alunos.uevora.pt"
        password="12345"
        ca_cert="./uevora_ca.pem"
}

but i keep getting this error:

Code:

$ sudo wpa_supplicant -Dwext -ira0 -ceduroam.conf
ioctl[SIOCSIWAUTH]: Operation not supported
WEXT auth param 7 value 0x1 - ioctl[SIOCSIWENCODEEXT]: Operation not supported
ioctl[SIOCSIWENCODEEXT]: Operation not supported
ioctl[SIOCSIWENCODEEXT]: Operation not supported

ioctl[SIOCSIWAUTH]: Operation not supported
WEXT auth param 7 value 0x0 - Failed to disable WPA in the driver.
ioctl[SIOCSIWAUTH]: Operation not supported
WEXT auth param 5 value 0x0 - ioctl[SIOCSIWAUTH]: Operation not supported
WEXT auth param 4 value 0x0 - 

how can i pass this through?

Thank for your replies :lol:

I am using Debian 4.0

/etc/network/interfaces

Code:

# Wireless / iNTERNET ##
allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet manual
        wpa-driver wext
        wpa-roam /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf

iface default inet dhcp

/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf

Code:

network={
        ssid="*HIDDEN*"
        proto=WPA
        key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
        pairwise=TKIP
        psk="*HIDDEN*"
        priority=10
}

network={
        ssid="*HIDDEN*"
        key_mgmt=NONE
        wep_key0="*HIDDEN*"
        priority=5
}

Kernel:
Linux ThunderBird 2.6.23 #1 Wed Oct 10 21:41:05 EEST 2007 i686 GNU/Linux

Code:

wpasupplicant 0.5.5-2

Code:

wlan0     IEEE 802.11b  ESSID:"*HIDDEN*"  
          Mode:Managed  Frequency:2.432 GHz  Access Point: 00:0D:0B:CB:94:1D   
          Bit Rate=11 Mb/s   Tx-Power=27 dBm   
          Retry min limit:7   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr=2346 B   
          Encryption key:****-****-****-****-****-****-**
          Link Quality=88/100  Signal level=-72 dBm  
          Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
          Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0

Of course with a custom kernel it works like a charm

+ didnt have to edit anything else exept interfaces & wpa_supplicant.conf
