Sun Jan 8 16:22:09 UTC 2017

1.Thank you for assistance

2. will test your  suggest today   ...

   2.1.> 
 	ifconfig_wlan0="WPA SYNCDHCP"
       Or maybe you need to specify the SSID here:
       ifconfig_wlan0="ssid <yourssid> WPA SYNC"

   2.2 ....  Correct, except the spaces. 

 would use all  without  space
example 
   hostname ="sony"

     key_mgmt="WPA-EAP"

 if not work 

    key_mgmt=WPA-EAP

3.  The command
> 
> 	# ifconfig wlan0 up scan

 would test ... used before   from ifconfig man
ifconfig wlan0 list scan

4. > Again, let me remind you of the diagnostic commands:

Your respectfully
