[SOLVED] Network Connection Failed WIFI/WPA2

[Chakky]

Hi Guys,

I have a problem with the my WiFi network.

My network is protects with password that includes special characters like &%$.

If I changed the settings per SSH and after restart the service I get following msg:

Code:

ifdown: interface wlan0 not configured
Error for wireless request "Set Power Management" (8B2C) :
    SET failed on device wlan0 ; Function not implemented.
wpa_supplicant: WARNING: plaintext or ascii WPA key has 3 characters,
wpa_supplicant: it must have between 8 and 63 to be valid.
wpa_supplicant: If the WPA key is a 256-bit hexadecimal key, it must have
wpa_supplicant: exactly 64 characters.

DHCPDISCOVER on wlan0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 7

I think, I must escaped the special characters. On other systems like Raspbmc or raspbian it is work.

Can anybody help me?

What version? Also did you use xbian-config? Did you try unplugging the wlan adapter and plugging it back in again?

[Chakky]

Version: Alpha: XBian 1.0 Alpha 3
Yes I used xbian-config.

I rebooted, I unplugged and plugged back, nothing works :/

Can you post the content of "/etc/network/interfaces"

[Chakky]

Code:

auto lo

iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet dhcp

allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp

wpa-ssid "Luft"
wpa-psk "XXX"
wireless-power off

XXX is only a short part of my password i think this is the problem

//edit: I tryed to change but:

Code:

Permission denied.
Error code: 3
Error message from server: Permission denied
Request code: 3

[CurlyMo]

What did you change? And what command gives the permission denied error?

[Chakky]

So at First I changed with winscp so I had this error.

Second I changed with sudo nano and now it works.

wpa-psk "XXX" <--i changed this to my network password reboot and now my wifi workeds
