"locate wlassistantrc" should give you the result. - Jul 22 2007

First, try to 'forget' current settings for the network, if it was configured before WPA was enabled on the access point, then try to connect with reconfiguring.
In case this doesn't work - make sure that "iwlist <iface> scan" returns WPA parameters for your network (post output if unsure).

it's your wireless card driver that implements WPA in a non-standard way (not through Wireless Extensions). As suggested in the above-mentioned thread, it seems like choosing installing ndiswrapper and using the native windows driver is the best solution if you want to connect to a WPA-protected network. Let me know how that worked. - Apr 06 2007

It's like that by design, so the AP is not immediately visible, as it's needed only on very rare occasions and would add to complexity/clutter. It has been like that since 0.5.0. - Apr 03 2007

Thank you for your comments!
For your idea to come true, I first need to separate wlassistant into lib and frontend (as you suggested) AND port it to Qt4, which I don't really have time for, as of now and upcoming months. There exists a rewrite in Qt4 at _very_ early stages of development, but I had to stop working on it due to lack of time. So, as soon as I manage to start the porting, I will get back to your idea. It doesn't seem feasible earlier. Thanks. - Apr 03 2007

Could you please post this question together with the console output on the public forums (homepage link above)? it will be easier to hunt the problem down there. And please specify what wireless card and kernel module for it are you using. Thanks in advance! - Feb 24 2006

the qt4 rewritten/overhauled program i'm working on will support WPA. At first only by calling the wpa_gui (part of wpa_supplicant). Depending on how well/poorly this will work, it might be changed in the far future.

This also means that I don't think I'll have the time to add any significant features to the KDE 3.x wlassistant though, most likely just bug fixes and small improvements.
Stay tuned and in some time you will see the best wlassistant ever ;)
Cheers,
Pawel. - Nov 01 2005

"Restricted" is a wireless-tools name that is equivalent with "Shared Key" (as opposed to "Open")
So, if you want 'restricted' use 'shared'. It's the same thing.

I am aware that this problem has not been fixed yet. Even though I tried, I could not reproduce this crash even once... in that case, fixing this is totally dependant on the users' (like you;) feedback and debugger/console/other outputs they send me. Any help is appreciated and I won't be able to fix this without it.
Cheers.
PS: If you feel like helping out, feel free to write to my email. - Sep 09 2005

1st: you do not set the path do dhclient - it's detected automatically (look at console output for detected DHCP client). The things you do set in the config file are path to .pid file and path to file with lease information (read only purposes).
If you have problems obtaining an IP address via DHCP, try increasing the DHCP client timeout in the options.
If you still have problems - what does console output say? Does it work if you run dhclient manually from the console?
Hope that helps. - Sep 01 2005

wlassistantrc can be found in ~/.kde/share/config/
In your case set the set the following line in the wlassistantrc [Paths] section:
DHCP PID File (dhclient)=/var/run/dhclient-%1.pid
'%1' will be substituted with the interface name. Let me know if you succeeded!
NOTE: b/c wlassistant uses sudo, you might need to be root to edit this file. - Sep 01 2005

I'm not sure about this answer since I had no chance to test it, so consider it a guess:
wlassistant accepts any WEP key that iwconfig does. AFAIK iwconfig supports ASCII keys. You should just prepend "s:" to it. That would be "s:abcde" in your case. Let me know if it works! - Sep 01 2005

There'll be a 0.5.4 release within days and it will include knoppix based debian packages. The creator of these packages reported no problems, so you might want to try them.
Thanks for the feedback. - Aug 25 2005

I was aware of the problem since I'm using my laptop in a cafe quite often... Your comment reminded me that maybe it's time to deal with the problem. ;) This will be done in the near future, so stay tuned! :)
Oh, and thanks for the words of appreciation! :)
