Description Joshua Jackson (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-04-30 20:39:41 UTC
Emerging the 0.4.0 of wpa-supplicant in association with the ipw2200 1.0.3 drivers, cause a ioctl[SIOCSIWPMKSA]: Operation not supported error. Starting right after wpa_supplicant on eth1 in the init net.eth1 script.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Emerge Wpa-supplicant-0.4.0
2.reboot with wpa-supplicant on ipw2200
3.see error when loading and running net.eth1 script

Actual Results:  
driver continues to load and get address but can not go more then 15 feet from
base station without signal dropping to almost nill

Expected Results:  
wpa-supplicant loads without error and allows free roaming within the range of
the wireless network, not having to be within 15 or so feet for decent connection.
