Hi all,

I have an Vu+solo with blackhole 1.7.2 image. I try to connect to an Ad-hoc wifi access point. But withou success. The scan see the adhoc access point but can't connect. (For information my vu+solo connect and works fine with a router wifi AP (infrastructure mode)

I do some search in unix documentation for wireless networking. I found some parameters. In the file /etc/network/interfaces the wlan0 interface (used for wireless) use the wpa_supplicant associeted with config file /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf like this:

##########################
# /etc/network/interfaces file
##########################
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
pre-up wpa_supplicant -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -B -Dnl80211
post-down wpa_cli terminate


So I decide to read more about wpa_supplicant.conf file and I found some information in unix doc howto configure this file for ad-hoc wireless networking.

I modify the file /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf like this to manage the ad-hoc AP:

ap_scan=2
network={
ssid="C5-03_JoikuSpot_9CCAD92B564F"
mode=1
proto=WPA
key_mgmt=WPA-NONE
pairwise=NONE
group=TKIP
psk=""
}
# mode: IEEE 802.11 operation mode
# 0 = infrastructure (Managed) mode, i.e., associate with an AP (default)
# 1 = IBSS (ad-hoc, peer-to-peer)
# Note: IBSS can only be used with key_mgmt NONE (plaintext and static WEP)
# and key_mgmt=WPA-NONE (fixed group key TKIP/CCMP). In addition, ap_scan has
# to be set to 2 for IBSS. WPA-None requires following network block options:
# proto=WPA, key_mgmt=WPA-NONE, pairwise=NONE, group=TKIP (or CCMP, but not
# both), and psk must also be set.

I restart the box, but still not connected.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong. If someone can test ad-hoc wireless connecting with enigma2!


Thanks for reading and waiting your feedback please.
