WPA2 on WL-500g

[Shawn]

Hello,

i read on Asus Webpage that one of the newest BETA firmwares for WL-500g will support WPA2 authentification?
Im using Firmware 1.9.2.7 my WL-500g but it does not support WPA2!

And on the other side i am using WL-100g! If there is a firmware for my WL-500g supporting WPA2 is there still a driver for WL-100g which supports WPA2,too?

Many Thx for helping!

WPA2 is supported for sure starting with 1.9.2.7.

Hello Oleg,

thanks for answering. But how can i activate it in my Asus Router!
I only have these authentifications.

- Open System or Shared Key
- Shared key
- WPA-PSK
- WPA
- Radius with 802.1x

but i couldnt see anything ybout WPA2!

Many Thanks for helping!

WPA and WPA-PSK modes are WPA2 too.

WPA and WPA-PSK modes are WPA2 too.

hello
i'd like to set wpa2 only, i've tried this :
nvram set wl0_pkm=psk2
nvram commit
reboot

nvram get wl0_pkm
psk psk2

why nvram don't commit

ps: WL500g-1.9.2.7-6c-pre5.trx

thank's a lot

[dos]

i find my own solution.

- in the web interface "Authentication Method:" open system shared key
-reboot
-telnet :

nvram set wl0_pkm=pk2
nvram commit
reboot
nvram get wl0_pkm
pk2


it's work !!!!



thank's oleg for your job !!!!!!!!!!

So, the WPA-1 still works if i didnt do anythink, what DOS did

[FilimoniC]

up. Don't you understand me?

[dos]

yes i unterstand you, but i'm busy ! sorry !!!
your right if you do nothing when you set wpa-psk in the web interface, wpa1-psk et wpa2-psk work together.


telnet: wl wpa_auth
psk psk2

[FilimoniC]

It's strange but this command gave me

WPA auth mode 132

It means WPA-PSK/WPA-Personal AND WPA2-PSK/WPA2-Personal ?

In my wl500gx there is no wl0_pkm variable. What shoul i do to activate WPA2-PSK only ?

[dos]

yes,i explain to you !

wpa_auth 4 (WPA-PSK/WPA-Personal)
wpa auth 128 (WPA2-PSK/WPA2-Personal)

128+4=132 (WPA-PSK/WPA-Personal+WPA2-PSK/WPA2-Personal)


you have the detail with "wl"

[FilimoniC]

I've done wl wpa_auth 128 and i cant connect via wpa-1 any more. Is it enough? (wl500g Deluxe)
So, no nvram needed.

[dos]

i think yes !!

Yep, that works for me too.
add that line to /usr/local/sbin/post-boot and after a reboot it will still accept wpa-2 only.
