Wpa2-psk-ccmp wireless connection

Hi guys,

I have a laptop with atheros ar9285 and i need to connect my pc to a wpa2-ccmp wireless network but it does not work.

Iwlist says that my card does support it. My driver is ath9k.

Ii tried wifi-menu and wpa_supplicant_gui with no luck

Thanks

but it does not work.

What does "does not work" mean?

Iwlist says that my card does support it.

That's getting closer, but please post the actual error messages.  I'm not sure how iwlist is relevant to the process - for wpa networks, you should use wpa_supplicant and dhcpcd (as needed).  iw* tools will not help.

Post the content of the wpa_supplicant.conf excerpts these created and, again, the error messages provided.

Re: Wpa2-psk-ccmp wireless connection

i can t do anything on the modem.
it uses openWRT (unknown version).

there are 3 connections: a 2.4 ccmp, a 5.0 ccmp ( i can t see this on my pc), a 2.4 tkip virtual ap ( i m using this, no errors)

the message is wpa authentication error.
as far as i know the password is correct

i m not using iwtools, i m using wifi-menu with netctl

there s another modem, vodafone, with ccmp, and there s no error with this.
