[leaf-user] madwifi and wpa and Thanks!
Trying to get wpa to work with the madwifi drivers. I have been able to get the madwifi drivers to work with my NIC and have verifiyed WEP and the master (ap) mode. When I load and configure the hostapd daemon I notice there is no ath0ap device. Does the daemon not work with some madwifi devices? I have tested wpa using a differnet NIC and verifyed the config.

Re: [leaf-user] madwifi and wpa and Thanks!
Hello Jim, There are 2 documents on the madwifi site that describes the hostapd setup: http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/WPA_PSK_on_Both_Ends (the Now do the AP side part) and http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/HostAP I followed the last document to setup hostapd on my atheros NIC. The hostapd should support all cards that are suported by madwifi AFAIK. This are the modules I have loaded: # Atheros wlan wlan_wep wlan_scan_ap wlan_tkip wlan_xauth ath_hal ath_rate_sample ath_pci autocreate=none I think you missed the wlan_tkip module. If you have an Atheros based NIC, you don't have to load the hostap modules. Eric Trying to get wpa to work with the madwifi drivers.

Re: [leaf-user] madwifi and wpa and Thanks!
Thanks! I added wlan_tkip and ath_pci autocreate=none to /etc/modules and success :) Sometimes another pair of eyes helps...
