I have a fresh install of Crunchbang (basically Ubuntu with Openbox instead of Gnome). In any case, I can't connect to my WPA network - when I click on it in the nm-applet and it asks me to authenticate my only options are:

  • WEP 10/128-bit key
  • WEP 128-bit Passphrase
  • LEAP
  • Dynamic WEP (802.1x)

wpa_supplicant is indeed installed, yet WPA does not get listed... any ideas?

What wifi card do you have? Is the proper driver installed? – MrStatic Apr 29 '10 at 16:09
