here is a more detailed report where I am stuck
iwconfig reads
[code]lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.
pan0 no wireless extensions.
wlan0 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:off/any
Mode:Managed Channel:0 Access Point: Not-Associated
Bit Rate:1 Mb/s Sensitivity=-200 dBm
RTS thr=2346 B Fragment thr=2346 B
Power Management:off
Link Quality:0 Signal level:0 Noise level:0
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0[/code]
when I run the next step again I get
[code]tad...@quad:~$ sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
tad...@quad:~$
[/code]
So I presume it installed the first time?
[code]tad...@quad:~$ sudo apt-get install wpasupplicant
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
wpasupplicant is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.[/code]
This seems fine as well.
I get a text pad when I run this
[code]tad...@quad:~$ gksudo gedit /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf[/code]
I put this in
network={
ssid="off/any"
proto=WPA
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
pairwise=TKIP
group=TKIP
psk="*******"
}
The 'off/any' I get from the wlan0 in iwconfig
So then I run the next bit
[code]tad...@quad:~$ sudo apt-get install wpasupplicant
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
wpasupplicant is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
tad...@quad:~$ gksudo gedit /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
tad...@quad:~$ sudo wpa_supplicant -Bw -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -iwlan0
wpa_supplicant: invalid option -- 'w'

-b = optional bridge interface name
-B = run daemon in the background
-c = Configuration file
-C = ctrl_interface parameter (only used if -c is not)
-i = interface name
-d = increase debugging verbosity (-dd even more)

-N = start describing new interface
example:
wpa_supplicant -Dwext -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf[/code]
When I run this I get
