Comment (by ksc):
SOLVED:
The solution was to place the "startwep" script AFTER "pre-up wlanconfig
..." and changed the line to "pre-up startwep -i ath10". It seems that the
key must be configured BEFORE bringing the interface up. After I changed
from...
{{{
auto ath10
iface ath10 inet static
address 10.17.0.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
post-down wlanconfig ath10 destroy
up /usr/bin/startwep
pre-up wlanconfig ath10 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode adhoc
pre-up iwconfig ath10 essid "myssid" mode Ad-Hoc channel 165 rate
auto rts off frag off
}}}
... to
{{{
auto ath10
iface ath10 inet static
address 10.17.0.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
post-down wlanconfig ath10 destroy
pre-up wlanconfig ath10 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode adhoc
pre-up /usr/bin/startwep
pre-up iwconfig ath10 essid "myssid" mode Ad-Hoc channel 165 rate
auto rts off frag off
}}}
it works.
