Doesn't really surprise me actually. I can happily connect to  wpa2
network here with wpa_cli but not wpa1. Probably depends to an extent on
the AP. This is why I have been suggesting for the 2860 to use one of
the graphical managers, as they seem to tweak enough settings in the
driver to get it to work reliably on most ap's.

Cheers
