I have not experienced the disconnect in the past when I only used
wpa_supplicant.  Although I have not tried it by itself on the new OS.
 Shoot, now I have to dig around to figure out how to configure
wpa_sup to test this out :)

I'll report in a bit
Jay

I can't seem to figure out how to configure wpasupplicant on it's own
in Debian.  I'm trying to connect to a WPA2 wireless router (dd-wrt).
Below are my configurations and what happens.

Maybe someone could offer a suggestion on setup?

Thanks
Jay
