As it can be a bit of a PITA. ;) But as I understand it; using "WPA DHCP" includes the wpa_supplicant(5) helper. So I think you must have to have at a wpa_supplicant.conf(5) that contains at least: eapol_version=2 ap_scan=1 Then it's as simple as: ifconfig wlan0 up && ifconfig wlan0 list scan I noticed you didn't include "list" in your command. This is how I understand it, anyway. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
