Sorry should have replied earlier Had tried the previous build(s) with no success and installed madwifi which works. seems to be an authentication issue from dmesg but its on another laptop and i don't have access to it at the moment. will uninstall madwifi (hopefully tonight) and try recommended kernels. and apologies for not responding earlier.
