WPA Password Problem

Hi, I have a Netgear Wi-Fi access point running WPA-PSK [TKIP] and a sane password (text with no punctuation or spaces)...

Spykee refuses to connect to this, falls back to ad-hoc and the log reports 'invalid network key'. Spykee works fine when protection is off, but I really don't want to reset *all* my other Wi-Fi devices to zero security...

Anyone seen this problem?

Regards, Isotope.

Re: WPA Password Problem (Solved)

The trick here is that Spikee seems to expect WPA2-PSK [AES] and not WPA-PSK [TKIP]. Fortunately the NETGEAR routers have a setting which allows support for both of these depending on the client.

Roll on Spikee authenticated SMTP.... :-)

Re: WPA Password Problem

The Netgear (WPN802) setting WPA-PSK & WPA2-PSK didn't solve the problem. Still seeing the "Key for wireless network <myNetwork> is invalid" error in the logging. I will go and try all netgear modes.

The following netgear settings work:

Network Authentication:

Re: WPA Password Problem (work-a-round)
I am curios to know if *anyone* has been able to connect their Spykee to a WPA secured network. I first read that Spykee couldn't handle a space in the SSID so I changed my network SSID. That didn't work. So, I called tech support this morning. The answer that I was given by the tech (who really wasn't one) was to use only the letters A-F which leads me to believe that Spykee only supports WEP.

So, if you have gotten WPA to work, let me know.
