[Bug 1065220] Re: Ubuntu 12.04 cant connect to wifi repeater

 

I have the same issue. One router is connect to the WAN network, other one is set as repeater (ssid: Gargoyle). Windows boxes are able to connect to the network although they are not able to obtain IP configuration via DHCP. This is probably due to some mistake in cnfiguration but if IPs are supplied manualy everything works on win.
On Ubuntu I cannot connect, it takes some time to connect but finally I'm asked about password. Android phones are able to connect too.

Bug description:
  I have TL-WR340G router my repeater TL-WA500G set up to work using not
  bridge not repeater but universal repeater setting (havent tried
  others and dont need them) BUT works in Windows but not in Ubuntu. For
  1/2 year ive tried different settings and setups. So now i have HEX
  128bit open WEP key (couse my repeater has only wep repeating or no
  key repeating function) and repeater has same HEX 128bit open WEP.
  Android was allways even with noncopatible options able to connect.
  Like Hex key shared repeated open but on Android i put ASCII. Now i
  just tried on WIndows and its working. So theres big problem in
  Ubuntu- cant connect no way to repeater.
