Yeah, my mistake. (Note my employer…)
I thought you had a more modern Atheros card.
These things typically turn out to be RF issues. poor connection of the
pigtail, high signal levels in the environment, etc.
In your particular case, you report:
"In configuring the WAN interface, I set the card to infrastructure mode (BSS)
and fill in the network I'm trying to join's name ("wireless_network”).”
and
"If I go to status > interfaces, I see that the status says "no carrier"
I setup an open network off of my cell phone and submitted the SSID of my
phone's network and I get the same "status : no carrier" result.”
So we don’t know if your card is even receiving beacon frames.
Can you drop to a shell and run "ifconfig wlan0 scan” (for whatever the name
of your interface is)?
