Re: Anyone get Dlinks DI-524 WPA-PSK function to work?

I am having the exact same problem. After setting the router (DI-524, H/W A1, F/W 1.05) and client (Atheros AR5005GS built-in) to WPA-PSK and TKIP (and ensuring the 802.1x box is unchecked on the client), it will connect, but every minute or so it will get 'Windows was unable to find a certificate to log you on to network <SSID>', and then I get disconnected. As it is WPA-PSK and not just WPA, there should be no certificates involved. It usually reconnects within a minute, but this is unacceptable. My OS is XP SP2, all updates applied. All firmware/drivers are current. I tried using static DHCP, but get the same results. WEP works fine, and that is what I have fallen back to, along with MAC filtering. I have called D-Link tech support on this, and they basically gave me the run around, suggested I find another client to test with and if it too has the same problem, to call them back. They had me change channels and other things that shouldn't matter. I don't think they have a clue. I have seen similar posts and suspect that D-Link never got WPA-PSK working. -- rhutson brought to you by http://www.wifi-forum.com/

Email D-Link tech support and ask for firmware revision 1.06 and see if you
can get the WPA-PSK working.
It's a beta (unreleased version) firmware, but I know it is available. I do
not know if the WPA-PSK function will work.
(I use a DWL-AG700AP from D-Link and the broadcast signal and range is great
and the WPA-PSK works great as well.
