The tricky part is that it says it is associated but has IP of 0.0.0.0.
So it looks like encryption part is working and then other communication

Do I get that right? You've tried setting a fixed IP? Can you also run
tcpdump on a remote side? How does your wpa_supplicant.conf look like?
Do you have any other device available? an USB wlan stick or something
to rule out the Atheros hardware.


Yes, I have tried what follows:
ifconfig_wlan0="WPA inet 192.168.0.10 netmask 255.255.255.0" in /etc/rc.conf
as well as manually after it's associated:
route flush
ifconfig wlan0 inet 192.168.0.30 netmask 255.255.255.0
route add default 192.168.0.1

and in both cases when I try to ping my router I get "host down". The wireless led on the router is flashing green at that time. ping (and dhcp) to that router works fine if I don't use encryption and it works fine over the wire.

tcpdump on the router is not available as it's just a closed embedded device (NETGEAR N300 series, but keep in mind that I'm experiencing the same problem with different router as well).

My wpa_supplicant.conf file:
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=wheel
network={
        ssid="NETGEAR"
        scan_ssid=1
        bssid=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
        priority=9
        mode=0
        proto=RSN
        key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
        auth_alg=OPEN
        pairwise=CCMP
        group=CCMP
        psk="passphrase"
}

Unfortunately I don't have access to any other wireless cards. Anything else I can provide to help with narrowing it down?
