wpa_supplicant requires tkip support in order to connect to wifi modem-router Dlink DSL-3900 With out tkip, the LiveGUI USB cannot connect this device which makes the LiveGUI useless for wifi networking. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. boot off USB 2. bring up network-manager via nm-applet 3. can't see network that is broadcast from DSL-3900 Actual Results: see above in "Steps to Reproduce" Expected Results: if tkip support was in wpa_supplicant then laptop would connect to DSL-3900 Please add tkip support to net-wireless/wpa_supplicant so the LiveGUI USB can be used to connect to wifi modem routers that require this.
