Hey Madhan,
until yesterday, i had excatly the same issue, therefore i tested first,
if my wlan-card could connect to the router without any wep or wpa or
whatever. This worked, no problem and was just to make sure, my driver
works right.
Afterwards, i tried & tried & tried with all the switches that i found
and: finally i got it working with:
- booting the laptop with the card inserted
- as root, in the shell doing:
wpa_supplicant -Dndiswrapper -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -w
the wait switch tell the supplicant to wait until a interface comes up.
and then i did:
- ifup wlan0
...this worked (and i wonder, if it's just the -k switch?????????)
afterwards, i tested it several times the same way, it worked perfect.
Doing some ftp-tests, i have better performance with ndiswrapper than in
windows itself (1800 kbps ndiswrapper, 1600 kbps windoze) in the same
environement...
Let me know, if this made your card with wpa working.
HTH

Must be still to early with no coffee, of course i meant the -w (wait)
switch, not the -k...sorry for confusion...
