It seems that we are converging on an incompatibility between that FritzBox 7270 and rtl8192cu as a problem. *George* Do you have one in your Lab? As the price on EBay is $275 US, I'm not very interested in getting one. *Chiefdome* Would it be possible for you to run Wireshark on some other machine and send us the capture file for the attempt to connect? When you use WPA-TKIP encryption, does it work? I would also appreciate your using 'git log' and verify that commits bac2555c6d863871329 and 3401dc6eba788ebc7c is present in your source. Larry
