I'd appreciate any help.
Besides the other comments, I'd suggest running wpa_cli and it should print messages about what the supplicant is doing. Also, the commands "status" and "scan_results" are useful IIRC (as is "help").
If I run wpa_cli, it produces the following :-
<2>WPA: 4-Way Handshake failed - pre-shared key may be incorrect
<2>CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED - Disconnect event - remove keys <2>Associated with 00:0f:3d:34:d6:f6
and then repeats the above lines.
But the passphrase I'm using is the same one I'm using on my wife's laptop, plus her and my phones. So I know it's good.
I'm unclear on how I use the status and scan_results commands. If I type in those commands, it tells me it's not a valid command. Sorry.
Some wireless cards are better than others, sadly.
I thought I'd bought one that was known to work but it seems that Netgear have more than one version of it sadly.
