Hi

I have been trying to connect via wpa_supplicant

this is wpa_supplicant

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=wheel
eapol_version=1
ap_scan=0
fast_reauth=1
network={
ssid="npower2"
scan_ssid=1
#bssid=00:19:5b:4c:1e:59
proto=WPA RSN
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
pairwise=CCMP TKIP
group=CCMP TKIP
psk=008c0ea5d7244b9f2c944e4a4472bf4e040296f4b8c28c6e5b3d8c9da84b3fee
priority=5
}

command

wpa_supplicant -iwlan1 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -B -dd

resulting in output

Added interface wlan1
Daemonize..

resulting in no AP being associated

I must be missing something simple

anyone any ideas?

BTW I can can connect via Network manager but that has its own issues
