Hi Chris,

ok, what i see is that network manager uses wpa_supplicant to setup network, but never receives any association event back.

1. Please stop network-manager completely: /etc/dbu*/even*/25Net* stop ... ensure that you have no wlan/eth1 interface up with ifconfig.

2. Then try supplicant manually:

    1st terminal:
       sudo wpa_supplicant -dd -g /var/run/wpa-supplicant-global 2>&1 | tee /tmp/wpa_supplicant.log

    2nd terminal:
      sudo wpa_cli -g/var/run/wpa-supplicant-global interface_add eth1 "" "" /var/run/wpa_supplicant
      sudo wpa_cli -p/var/run/wpa_supplicant

    (enter interactive shell)
     > AP_SCAN 1
     OK
     > ADD_NETWORK
     0
     > SET_NETWORK 0 ssid "youressid"
     OK
     > SET_NETWORK 0 key_mgmt NONE
     OK
     > ENABLE_NETWORK 0

Now wait a while and post the output of 2nd terminal as well as the wpa_supplicant.log. (don't run dhclient or something ... its of no matter for this test).

Thanks,
