what I am getting in dmesg is:
auth0: association failed (reason 25) for 00:0D:3A:74:00:61

00:0D:3A:74:00:61 is the BSSID of the AP

wicontrol -i ath0 -L lists the AP

Your *key* is 104-bits (26 hex digits)... there is a 24 bit Initialization Vector added to the key.


Double check your SSID on the AP and make sure it matches the 'ifconfig...' you have. Also might try explicitly specifying *which* weptxkey (1-4) you are using in ifconfig.

Also, for what its worth my atheros cards do not work well in g with my AP (WRT54G)... I had to set it to b. So you might try that till you get it on its feet. Just my 2 cents.

I set up a WRT54G and could never get it to use a high level of security. You may have to tone it down a bit from 128bit.


Try this link if you like source code

What is it saying about the BSSID 00:0D:3A:74:00:61?

Are you trying to set the SSID=BSSID or soething like that?

The BSSID is a 48bit identity used to identify a particular BSS (Basic Service Set) within an area. In Infrastructure BSS networks, the BSSID is the MAC (Medium Access Control) address of the AP (Access Point) and in Independent BSS or ad hoc networks, the BSSID is generated randomly.


The Service Set Identifier or Network Name is used within IEEE 802.11 networks to identify a particular network. It is usually set by the administrator setting up the WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) and will be unique within a BSS (Basic Service Set) or ESS (Extended Service Set). The SSID may be broadcast from an AP (Access Point) within the wireless network to enable Stations to determine which network to âAssociateâ with. However, this feature should be disabled as it may assist âhackers, or wardriversâ in gaining access to a private network.
