Hi! Trying to connect a Longshine LCS-8131G with a WPA1 access point using zd1211rw (as in Linux 2.6.19.2). Starting wpasupplicant and associating works fine, as does connectivity when configuring the client IP manually, but as soon as I start dhclient, the connection breaks (logs see below). Perhaps this is some distribution issue (Debian testing) as /etc/dhclient-script seems to do an ifconfig down on the wifi device when starting dhclient (for getting rid of old routes perhaps). However, other wifi devices (Intel...) work with the same software.
Can someone shed some light on this? Regards # wpasupplicant 0.5.5-4 ...
