Hello Kel,<br>
<br>
I don't think your conclusion is correct.<br>
I found this in the output of dmesg:<br>
<br>
wlan0: ethernet device 00:19:7d:3a:17:eb using NDIS driver: bcmwl5,
version: 0x4640f05, NDIS version: 0x501, vendor: 'NDIS Network
Adapter', 14E4:4311.5.conf<br>
wlan0: encryption modes supported: WEP; TKIP with WPA, WPA2, WPA2PSK;
AES/CCMP with WPA, WPA2, WPA2PSK<br>
<br>
Obviously ndiswrapper reports here that WPA is supported.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
<br>
Frank<br>

This is not a bug of wpasupplicant. See below for why.

This is the punchline. ndiswrapper doesn't think your windows driver supports
WPA, and reports that to wpa_supplicant. Maybe yry a different windows
driver?
Personally, I find the native bcm43xx module to be quite okay, ymmv of course.
Thanks, Kel.
