Wireless will not work.

Keveam · 2009-05-10 23:08:27

Every time after I type in my WPA key, my wireless will not connect. This is true for network manager and wicd. I don't know what to do. I have crda installed and configured, the wireless-regdom daemon running, and the iwlagn module with the correct iwlwifi-ucode installed.

How do I fix this?

What about wpa_supplicant?

Okay, good. Can you post up the contents of /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf (making sure to remove any sensitive information )?

##### Example wpa_supplicant configuration file ###############################
#
# This file describes configuration file format and lists all available option.
# Please also take a look at simpler configuration examples in 'examples'
# subdirectory.
#
# Empty lines and lines starting with # are ignored

# NOTE! This file may contain password information and should probably be made
# readable only by root user on multiuser systems.

# Note: All file paths in this configuration file should use full (absolute,
# not relative to working directory) path in order to allow working directory
# to be changed. This can happen if wpa_supplicant is run in the background.

# Whether to allow wpa_supplicant to update (overwrite) configuration
#
# This option can be used to allow wpa_supplicant to overwrite configuration
# file whenever configuration is changed (e.g., new network block is added with
# wpa_cli or wpa_gui, or a password is changed). This is required for
# wpa_cli/wpa_gui to be able to store the configuration changes permanently.
# Please note that overwriting configuration file will remove the comments from
# it.
#update_config=1

# global configuration (shared by all network blocks)
#
# Parameters for the control interface. If this is specified, wpa_supplicant
# will open a control interface that is available for external programs to
# manage wpa_supplicant. The meaning of this string depends on which control
# interface mechanism is used. For all cases, the existance of this parameter
# in configuration is used to determine whether the control interface is
# enabled.
#
# For UNIX domain sockets (default on Linux and BSD): This is a directory that
# will be created for UNIX domain sockets for listening to requests from
# external programs (CLI/GUI, etc.) for status information and configuration.
# The socket file will be named based on the interface name, so multiple
# wpa_supplicant processes can be run at the same time if more than one
# interface is used.
# /var/run/wpa_supplicant is the recommended directory for sockets and by
# default, wpa_cli will use it when trying to connect with wpa_supplicant.
#
# Access control for the control interface can be configured by setting the
# directory to allow only members of a group to use sockets. This way, it is
# possible to run wpa_supplicant as root (since it needs to change network
# configuration and open raw sockets) and still allow GUI/CLI components to be
# run as non-root users. However, since the control interface can be used to
# change the network configuration, this access needs to be protected in many
# cases. By default, wpa_supplicant is configured to use gid 0 (root). If you
# want to allow non-root users to use the control interface, add a new group
# and change this value to match with that group. Add users that should have
# control interface access to this group. If this variable is commented out or
# not included in the configuration file, group will not be changed from the
# value it got by default when the directory or socket was created.
#
# When configuring both the directory and group, use following format:
# DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=wheel
# DIR=/var/run/wpa_supplicant GROUP=0
# (group can be either group name or gid)
#
# For UDP connections (default on Windows): The value will be ignored. This
# variable is just used to select that the control interface is to be created.
# The value can be set to, e.g., udp (ctrl_interface=udp)
#
# For Windows Named Pipe: This value can be used to set the security descriptor
# for controlling access to the control interface. Security descriptor can be
# set using Security Descriptor String Format (see http://msdn.microsoft.com/
# library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/secauthz/security/
# security_descriptor_string_format.asp). The descriptor string needs to be
# prefixed with SDDL=. For example, ctrl_interface=SDDL=D: would set an empty
# DACL (which will reject all connections). See README-Windows.txt for more
# information about SDDL string format.
#
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant

# IEEE 802.1X/EAPOL version
# wpa_supplicant is implemented based on IEEE Std 802.1X-2004 which defines
# EAPOL version 2. However, there are many APs that do not handle the new
# version number correctly (they seem to drop the frames completely). In order
# to make wpa_supplicant interoperate with these APs, the version number is set
# to 1 by default. This configuration value can be used to set it to the new
# version (2).
eapol_version=1

# AP scanning/selection
# By default, wpa_supplicant requests driver to perform AP scanning and then
# uses the scan results to select a suitable AP. Another alternative is to
# allow the driver to take care of AP scanning and selection and use
# wpa_supplicant just to process EAPOL frames based on IEEE 802.11 association
# information from the driver.
# 1: wpa_supplicant initiates scanning and AP selection
# 0: driver takes care of scanning, AP selection, and IEEE 802.11 association
#    parameters (e.g., WPA IE generation); this mode can also be used with
#    non-WPA drivers when using IEEE 802.1X mode; do not try to associate with
#    APs (i.e., external program needs to control association). This mode must
#    also be used when using wired Ethernet drivers.
# 2: like 0, but associate with APs using security policy and SSID (but not
#    BSSID); this can be used, e.g., with ndiswrapper and NDIS drivers to
#    enable operation with hidden SSIDs and optimized roaming; in this mode,
#    the network blocks in the configuration file are tried one by one until
#    the driver reports successful association; each network block should have
#    explicit security policy (i.e., only one option in the lists) for
#    key_mgmt, pairwise, group, proto variables
ap_scan=1

# EAP fast re-authentication
# By default, fast re-authentication is enabled for all EAP methods that
# support it. This variable can be used to disable fast re-authentication.
# Normally, there is no need to disable this.
fast_reauth=1

# network block
#
# Each network (usually AP's sharing the same SSID) is configured as a separate
# block in this configuration file. The network blocks are in preference order
# (the first match is used).
#
# network block fields:
#
# disabled:
#    0 = this network can be used (default)
#    1 = this network block is disabled (can be enabled through ctrl_iface,
#        e.g., with wpa_cli or wpa_gui)
#
# id_str: Network identifier string for external scripts. This value is passed
#    to external action script through wpa_cli as WPA_ID_STR environment
#    variable to make it easier to do network specific configuration.
#
# ssid: SSID (mandatory); either as an ASCII string with double quotation or
#    as hex string; network name
#
# scan_ssid:
#    0 = do not scan this SSID with specific Probe Request frames (default)
#    1 = scan with SSID-specific Probe Request frames (this can be used to
#        find APs that do not accept broadcast SSID or use multiple SSIDs;
#        this will add latency to scanning, so enable this only when needed)
#
# bssid: BSSID (optional); if set, this network block is used only when
#    associating with the AP using the configured BSSID
#
# priority: priority group (integer)
# By default, all networks will get same priority group (0). If some of the
# networks are more desirable, this field can be used to change the order in
# which wpa_supplicant goes through the networks when selecting a BSS. The
# priority groups will be iterated in decreasing priority (i.e., the larger the
# priority value, the sooner the network is matched against the scan results).
# Within each priority group, networks will be selected based on security
# policy, signal strength, etc.
# Please note that AP scanning with scan_ssid=1 and ap_scan=2 mode are not
# using this priority to select the order for scanning. Instead, they try the
# networks in the order that used in the configuration file.
#
# mode: IEEE 802.11 operation mode
# 0 = infrastructure (Managed) mode, i.e., associate with an AP (default)
# 1 = IBSS (ad-hoc, peer-to-peer)
# Note: IBSS can only be used with key_mgmt NONE (plaintext and static WEP)
# and key_mgmt=WPA-NONE (fixed group key TKIP/CCMP). In addition, ap_scan has
# to be set to 2 for IBSS. WPA-None requires following network block options:
# proto=WPA, key_mgmt=WPA-NONE, pairwise=NONE, group=TKIP (or CCMP, but not
# both), and psk must also be set.
#
# frequency: Channel frequency in megahertz (MHz) for IBSS, e.g.,
# 2412 = IEEE 802.11b/g channel 1. This value is used to configure the initial
# channel for IBSS (adhoc) networks. It is ignored in the infrastructure mode.
# In addition, this value is only used by the station that creates the IBSS. If
# an IBSS network with the configured SSID is already present, the frequency of
# the network will be used instead of this configured value.
#
# proto: list of accepted protocols
# WPA = WPA/IEEE 802.11i/D3.0
# RSN = WPA2/IEEE 802.11i (also WPA2 can be used as an alias for RSN)
# If not set, this defaults to: WPA RSN

#
# psk: WPA preshared key; 256-bit pre-shared key
# The key used in WPA-PSK mode can be entered either as 64 hex-digits, i.e.,
# 32 bytes or as an ASCII passphrase (in which case, the real PSK will be
# generated using the passphrase and SSID). ASCII passphrase must be between
# 8 and 63 characters (inclusive).
# This field is not needed, if WPA-EAP is used.
# Note: Separate tool, wpa_passphrase, can be used to generate 256-bit keys
# from ASCII passphrase. This process uses lot of CPU and wpa_supplicant
# startup and reconfiguration time can be optimized by generating the PSK only
# only when the passphrase or SSID has actually changed.

# eapol_flags: IEEE 802.1X/EAPOL options (bit field)
# Dynamic WEP key required for non-WPA mode
# bit0 (1): require dynamically generated unicast WEP key

#
# mixed_cell: This option can be used to configure whether so called mixed

#
# wpa_ptk_rekey: Maximum lifetime for PTK in seconds. This can be used to

#
# Following fields are only used with internal EAP implementation.
# eap: space-separated list of accepted EAP methods
#    MD5 = EAP-MD5 (unsecure and does not generate keying material ->
#            cannot be used with WPA; to be used as a Phase 2 method
#            with EAP-PEAP or EAP-TTLS)
#       MSCHAPV2 = EAP-MSCHAPv2 (cannot be used separately with WPA; to be used

#    TLS = EAP-TLS (client and server certificate)
#    PEAP = EAP-PEAP (with tunnelled EAP authentication)
#    TTLS = EAP-TTLS (with tunnelled EAP or PAP/CHAP/MSCHAP/MSCHAPV2
#             authentication)
#    If not set, all compiled in methods are allowed.
#
# identity: Identity string for EAP
#    This field is also used to configure user NAI for
#    EAP-PSK/PAX/SAKE/GPSK.
# anonymous_identity: Anonymous identity string for EAP (to be used as the
#    unencrypted identity with EAP types that support different tunnelled
#    identity, e.g., EAP-TTLS)
# password: Password string for EAP. This field can include either the
#    plaintext password (using ASCII or hex string) or a NtPasswordHash
#    (16-byte MD4 hash of password) in hash:<32 hex digits> format.
#    NtPasswordHash can only be used when the password is for MSCHAPv2 or
#    MSCHAP (EAP-MSCHAPv2, EAP-TTLS/MSCHAPv2, EAP-TTLS/MSCHAP, LEAP).
#    EAP-PSK (128-bit PSK), EAP-PAX (128-bit PSK), and EAP-SAKE (256-bit
#    PSK) is also configured using this field. For EAP-GPSK, this is a
#    variable length PSK.
# ca_cert: File path to CA certificate file (PEM/DER). This file can have one
#    or more trusted CA certificates. If ca_cert and ca_path are not
#    included, server certificate will not be verified. This is insecure and
#    a trusted CA certificate should always be configured when using
#    EAP-TLS/TTLS/PEAP. Full path should be used since working directory may
#    change when wpa_supplicant is run in the background.
#    On Windows, trusted CA certificates can be loaded from the system
#    certificate store by setting this to cert_store://<name>, e.g.,
#    ca_cert="cert_store://CA" or ca_cert="cert_store://ROOT".
#    Note that when running wpa_supplicant as an application, the user
#    certificate store (My user account) is used, whereas computer store
#    (Computer account) is used when running wpasvc as a service.
# ca_path: Directory path for CA certificate files (PEM). This path may
#    contain multiple CA certificates in OpenSSL format. Common use for this
#    is to point to system trusted CA list which is often installed into
#    directory like /etc/ssl/certs. If configured, these certificates are
#    added to the list of trusted CAs. ca_cert may also be included in that
#    case, but it is not required.
# client_cert: File path to client certificate file (PEM/DER)
#    Full path should be used since working directory may change when
#    wpa_supplicant is run in the background.
#    Alternatively, a named configuration blob can be used by setting this
#    to blob://<blob name>.
# private_key: File path to client private key file (PEM/DER/PFX)
#    When PKCS#12/PFX file (.p12/.pfx) is used, client_cert should be
#    commented out. Both the private key and certificate will be read from
#    the PKCS#12 file in this case. Full path should be used since working
#    directory may change when wpa_supplicant is run in the background.
#    Windows certificate store can be used by leaving client_cert out and
#    configuring private_key in one of the following formats:
#    cert://substring_to_match
#    hash://certificate_thumbprint_in_hex
#    for example: private_key="hash://63093aa9c47f56ae88334c7b65a4"
#    Note that when running wpa_supplicant as an application, the user
#    certificate store (My user account) is used, whereas computer store
#    (Computer account) is used when running wpasvc as a service.
#    Alternatively, a named configuration blob can be used by setting this
#    to blob://<blob name>.
# private_key_passwd: Password for private key file (if left out, this will be
#    asked through control interface)
# dh_file: File path to DH/DSA parameters file (in PEM format)
#    This is an optional configuration file for setting parameters for an
#    ephemeral DH key exchange. In most cases, the default RSA
#    authentication does not use this configuration. However, it is possible
#    setup RSA to use ephemeral DH key exchange. In addition, ciphers with
#    DSA keys always use ephemeral DH keys. This can be used to achieve
#    forward secrecy. If the file is in DSA parameters format, it will be
#    automatically converted into DH params.
# subject_match: Substring to be matched against the subject of the
#    authentication server certificate. If this string is set, the server
#    sertificate is only accepted if it contains this string in the subject.
#    The subject string is in following format:
#    /C=US/ST=CA/L=San Francisco/CN=Test AS/emailAddress=as@example.com
# altsubject_match: Semicolon separated string of entries to be matched against
#    the alternative subject name of the authentication server certificate.
#    If this string is set, the server sertificate is only accepted if it
#    contains one of the entries in an alternative subject name extension.
#    altSubjectName string is in following format: TYPE:VALUE
#    Example: EMAIL:server@example.com
#    Example: DNS:server.example.com;DNS:server2.example.com
#    Following types are supported: EMAIL, DNS, URI
# phase1: Phase1 (outer authentication, i.e., TLS tunnel) parameters
#    (string with field-value pairs, e.g., "peapver=0" or
#    "peapver=1 peaplabel=1")
#    'peapver' can be used to force which PEAP version (0 or 1) is used.
#    'peaplabel=1' can be used to force new label, "client PEAP encryption",
#    to be used during key derivation when PEAPv1 or newer. Most existing
#    PEAPv1 implementation seem to be using the old label, "client EAP
#    encryption", and wpa_supplicant is now using that as the default value.
#    Some servers, e.g., Radiator, may require peaplabel=1 configuration to
#    interoperate with PEAPv1; see eap_testing.txt for more details.
#    'peap_outer_success=0' can be used to terminate PEAP authentication on
#    tunneled EAP-Success. This is required with some RADIUS servers that
#    implement draft-josefsson-pppext-eap-tls-eap-05.txt (e.g.,
#    Lucent NavisRadius v4.4.0 with PEAP in "IETF Draft 5" mode)
#    include_tls_length=1 can be used to force wpa_supplicant to include
#    TLS Message Length field in all TLS messages even if they are not
#    fragmented.
#    sim_min_num_chal=3 can be used to configure EAP-SIM to require three
#    challenges (by default, it accepts 2 or 3)
#    result_ind=1 can be used to enable EAP-SIM and EAP-AKA to use
#    protected result indication.
#    'crypto_binding' option can be used to control PEAPv0 cryptobinding
#    behavior:
#     * 0 = do not use cryptobinding (default)
#     * 1 = use cryptobinding if server supports it
#     * 2 = require cryptobinding
#    EAP-WSC (WPS) uses following options: pin=<Device Password> or
#    pbc=1.
# phase2: Phase2 (inner authentication with TLS tunnel) parameters
#    (string with field-value pairs, e.g., "auth=MSCHAPV2" for EAP-PEAP or
#    "autheap=MSCHAPV2 autheap=MD5" for EAP-TTLS)
# Following certificate/private key fields are used in inner Phase2
# authentication when using EAP-TTLS or EAP-PEAP.
# ca_cert2: File path to CA certificate file. This file can have one or more
#    trusted CA certificates. If ca_cert2 and ca_path2 are not included,
#    server certificate will not be verified. This is insecure and a trusted
#    CA certificate should always be configured.
# ca_path2: Directory path for CA certificate files (PEM)
# client_cert2: File path to client certificate file
# private_key2: File path to client private key file
# private_key2_passwd: Password for private key file
# dh_file2: File path to DH/DSA parameters file (in PEM format)
# subject_match2: Substring to be matched against the subject of the
#    authentication server certificate.
# altsubject_match2: Substring to be matched against the alternative subject
#    name of the authentication server certificate.
#
# fragment_size: Maximum EAP fragment size in bytes (default 1398).
#    This value limits the fragment size for EAP methods that support
#    fragmentation (e.g., EAP-TLS and EAP-PEAP). This value should be set
#    small enough to make the EAP messages fit in MTU of the network
#    interface used for EAPOL. The default value is suitable for most
#    cases.
#
# EAP-FAST variables:
# pac_file: File path for the PAC entries. wpa_supplicant will need to be able
#    to create this file and write updates to it when PAC is being
#    provisioned or refreshed. Full path to the file should be used since
#    working directory may change when wpa_supplicant is run in the

#    setting this to blob://<blob name>
# phase1: fast_provisioning option can be used to enable in-line provisioning
#         of EAP-FAST credentials (PAC):
#         0 = disabled,
#         1 = allow unauthenticated provisioning,
#         2 = allow authenticated provisioning,
#         3 = allow both unauthenticated and authenticated provisioning
#    fast_max_pac_list_len=<num> option can be used to set the maximum
#        number of PAC entries to store in a PAC list (default: 10)
#    fast_pac_format=binary option can be used to select binary format for
#        storing PAC entries in order to save some space (the default
#        text format uses about 2.5 times the size of minimal binary
#        format)
#
# wpa_supplicant supports number of "EAP workarounds" to work around
# interoperability issues with incorrectly behaving authentication servers.
# These are enabled by default because some of the issues are present in large
# number of authentication servers. Strict EAP conformance mode can be
# configured by disabling workarounds with eap_workaround=0.
