Comment:
Nice troubleshooting, jarviksin. The root cause of your problem was
definitely open vs shared key authentication. Your debug log reported:
Jun 11 23:17:49 localhost kernel: ath0: [00:0d:88:98:21:30] recv auth
frame with algorithm 0 seq 2
Jun 11 23:17:49 localhost kernel: ath0: [00:0d:88:98:21:30] open auth
failed (reason 13)
Error 13 means the AP does not support "open" authentication.
If you want madwifi to use shared key auth, add a command "iwpriv ath0
authmode 2" line to your startup script. But don't do that: open
authentication is better.
