Macbook Pro 9.2 wireless issue

**sumer1212** · 02-28-2013, 09:40 PM

I just recently installed Backtrack 5 on my Macbook Pro 9.2 and had some problems getting my wifi working. After enabling b43 and installing b43-fwcutter and firmware-b43-installer i managed to connect to my own wireless with WPA-Supplicant and this script:

Code:

#wireless-wpa.sh
iface=wlan0

ifconfig $iface down

iwconfig $iface mode Managed

ifconfig $iface up

killall wpa_supplicant

wpa_supplicant -B -Dwext -i $iface -c ./wireless-wpa.conf -dd

dhclient $iface

Code:

#wireless-wpa.conf
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant

network={
ssid="h0tsp0t"
scan_ssid=1
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
psk="**********"
}

But when i tried to connect to the wireless at my school with terminal i wasn't able to get a connection. My schools network doesn't have encryption so i thought i would try set up a wpa2 network from my android phone. Here's what i get when i connect to my home wireless with the script:

Code:

And when i change the script's ssid and psk to my phones network and run it i get this:
