Subject:   WPA-EAP (ath driver): trouble maintaining connection
Message-ID:  <20090214222342.GA45141@skepsi.net>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help

Hello,

I have been having trouble maintaining a wireless connection at my
university, which uses the WPA-EAP protocol. I have played with my
wpa_supplicant.conf file, but haven't found anything that works. I
don't seems to have any trouble at home using a Linksys AP and
WPA-PSK. I was hoping someone here could point me in the right
direction---I am not very familiar with WPA and wireless
networking. Error messages and other relevant information below. (You
will notice that I lose connection every 5-10 minutes.)

Thanks in advance.
