Hi there, I am trying a very simple task: connect to my wifi using a my debian box. Setup: My wifi box is made by Free.Fr (French ADSL provider). I did setup the SSID to be foobar, no broadcast, and security "WPA (TKIP+AES)". I hit generate and it gives me a password. I can connect using WinXP no problem.
Now if I try to connect with my debian box, I click on the network-manager and select 'Connect to Hidden Network', set security to 'WPA/WPA2 Personal' and copy paste the password as I would do on winxp. It does not connect at all. I tried then: http://wiki.debian.org/Manual-Howto#AuthenticatewithwpausingPSKTKIP. It still does not work and I get (*). What am I doing wrong ? What are the tool to understand what is going on wrong ? Should I select another type of security ?
