Description Rob Moore 2006-01-22 11:38:30 UTC

It appears that the sb2 is able to connect but unable to authenticate. I see the following cycle in my router logs:

Jan/22/2006 13:34:43 	Authenticating......			00-04-20-05-b3-81
Jan/22/2006 13:34:42 	Wireless PC connected			00-04-20-05-b3-81
Jan/22/2006 13:34:35 	Authenticating......			00-04-20-05-b3-81
Jan/22/2006 13:34:34 	Wireless PC connected			00-04-20-05-b3-81
...

I have seen some bugzilla entries discussing some forthcoming kernel fix for folks with wpa2+aes issues but no movement since November. Not sure if this is related, but would appreciate some feedback.

Thanks!

Comment 1 Rob Moore 2006-01-22 11:58:38 UTC

I should have mentioned I have firmware 2.71 and I have a version C of the router.

Also, I was able to use this router with wpa-tkip before but now need to be able to support either wpa-aes or wpa2-aes (there is an auto wpa2 mode that supports either of these protocols simultaneously but does not give me the option of running wpa with tkip) on the network.

Comment 2 Rob Moore 2006-01-29 10:01:16 UTC

I have updated my sb2 to use firmware 29. Still does not work, but I no longer get an infinite loop of "Authenticating... Wireless PC connected" messages as before. I see too such loops and then no more (at least so far). However, the sb2 is not able to obtain an address via DHCP.

Comment 3 Rob Moore 2006-02-03 06:57:43 UTC

Some additional info, the router shows the sb2 as connected constantly rather than just seconds at a time as it was prior to firmware upgrade (it's been connected a couple of days now). I've tried setting up the sb2 to use a static IP (thinking perhaps the DHCP negotiation was an issue) but that hasn't had any effect.

Comment 4 Richard Titmuss 2006-04-05 13:26:36 UTC

I have a fix that should appear in firmware 37.  Will update this bug when it's available for download.

Comment 5 Richard Titmuss 2006-04-06 06:05:45 UTC

Please try the latest nightly build with Firmware 37 and reopen if you have
issues.  Also, please note details of your configuration if you have not
already.

Comment 6 Rob Moore 2006-04-09 11:54:29 UTC

Everything appears to be working on my end. I have noticed that I consistently get just static for some songs but I'm not sure this is attributable to this bug.

Thanks!
