Package: wpasupplicant
Version: 0.4.6-0.2
Severity: important
Hi,
Wpasupplicant stopped working on my laptop some time ago (I don't use it
often, so I don't know when exactly).
I'm using ndiswrapper with the bcmwl5a driver.
Here is the output of
wpa_supplicant -w -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -D ndiswrapper -dd

Note the kernel error message. This tells that set_auth_mode here fails
with error C0010015, i.e. "invalid parameter". The invalid parameter
here is 6, i.e. WPA2 authentication mode. That hence means that WPA2
doesn't seem to be supported by the bcmwl5a driver.
The solution I hence found is adding
proto=WPA
in /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf, so as to disable WPA2 completely, event if
the AP supports it.
But since the default value for "proto" is "WPA RSN", the real clean fix
would be to try RSN (if supported by the AP), but then revert to WPA if
RSN didn't work for some reason (whatever it may be).

Samuel
