Description of problem: I'm setting up a new WPA2/AES PSK wireless network, and trying to get my Lynksys WPC54GS (V12) to connect using the bcm43xx driver. I can connect okay from a Windows machine as well as from another FC5 system using the ipw2100 driver, so I suspect it's a bcm43xx issue. Bug #184521 mentions a fix for the bcm43xx driver that got into the 2.6.16-1.2088_FC6 kernel. I'd imagine though that that fix is in 2.6.17-1.2159_FC5 as well, which is what I'm running. wpa_supplicant.conf: ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant ctrl_interface_group=wheel network={ ssid="CORA" psk=<key> key_mgmt=WPA-PSK proto=WPA2 pairwise=CCMP group=CCMP } Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): wpa_supplicant-0.4.8-10.fc5 How reproducible: everytime

Try the following: 1. Disable wpa_supplicant service # chkconfig wpa_supplicant off 2. Add the following line on the end of /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-wireless wpa_supplicant -B -i$DEVICE -Dwext -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf This should work as a temp. workaround. But the whole wireless setup scripts need some cleanup i think. Regards Heiko
This appears to be fixed in 2.6.18-1.2200.fc5.
