|
|
I have a wifi network in my school encrypted by wep, I can have the internet in using wicd, But I would like to use wpa_supplicant. I set some lines in wpa_supplicant.conf but I don't have the internet. I can only connect the wifi spot with IP address like this "169.254.xx.xx", if I use wicd, the IP address would be like "192.168.xx.xx". So what should I do in wpa_supplicant.conf?
the current configuration is like this
network={
ssid="test"
key_mgmt=NONE
wep_key0="123456"
wep_tx_keyidx=0
}

It's kinda hard to say what's wrong without knowing how exactly you connect to your school's network.
I suggest using the wpa_gui frontend, which should make it easier to experiment and see what exactly is happening. (Emerge wpa_supplicant with qt4 USE flag to get it).

Thanks. I solved the problem with wpa_gui, auth_alg=OPEN should be added. |
