I have two Macs that talk WPA2 and that works just fine. My question is how do I get Linux to talk WPA2. I've got other OSes to, because they all let you actually say "Use WPA2", but the Linux utils just ask for a SSID and a "key". The router lets you set up a "WPA Shared Key:" in the form of a passphrase. When I use this passphrase on Linux, it does not work. Either because it wants a hex-based key, or because there's no place to tell it tat we're using WPA2 as opposed to, say, WEP. This is what I'm asking: How do I tell Linux we're using WPA2? -Yaron --
