Cisco Aironet 350(PCI) supports WAP in Linux?

[eldorado2005]

Hello, this is my first threat here

I have one question here. I know Cisco 350 supports WEP but does it support WAP as well?? Currently, I am using driver version 2.1 and firmware 4.25.30 in my linux box, sould I download/configure something to make it support WAP?

Thanks for reading my message.

I am sorry that I do not understand your question. What is WAP? (WAP usually stands for wireless access point) I am guessing that you want to find out the WPA support on 350 wireless adapter in LINUX.

The answer is that there is no plan to do so. If you want Cisco to add new features, please contact your local Cisco account team.

As LINUX is open sourced, you can develop your own. Not sure if I can give you an answer to make you happy.

sorry I mean WPA-PSK.... does this card support WPA?

[eldorado2005]

since my wireless router is "WPA-PSK" network authentication. But when I configure my 350 client adaptor I can only choose from "Open, Share" authentication.

No. Cisco 350 adapters do not support WPA-PSK in any operating system, except for Windows XP where WPA-PSK is natively supported.

But can I still get access online even though the router is set to be WPA now? If so, what should I change in my 350 configuration. I hope my 350 adapter won't become useless since this is the only wireless card that I know support Linux.

I hate to say this, but you need to disable WPA-PSK on the wireless router. Use static WEP.
