Thanks for much for your replies.

1] Does that mean you expect the Atheros Driver to cope with WPA w/o
wpa_supplicant? What makes you think it can? 

A] What I wanted to mention was that with WPA Supplicant [same settings] the
association with Cisco 1242 AG works perfectly, but if I use command based
settings on Atheros card using Madwifi driver, it does not associate, Why?

2] You're only configuring the card for WEP encryption. 

A] Following are the settings I am performing on the Atheros card using
madwifi commands
wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode sta
iwconfig ath0 essid Cisco11b [Comment: same as cisco]
iwpriv ath0 mode 11g
iwpriv ath0 authmode 1 
iwpriv ath0 authentication wpa-psk
iwpriv ath0 wpa 1 [Comment: For cisco and atheros WPA vaersion 1]
iwpriv ath0 wpa 1 psk s:AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
iwpriv ath0 keymgtalgs 2
iwpriv ath0 ucastkeylen 16
iwpriv ath0 mcastkeylen 16

Are these settings / commands enough or fine?

3] iwpriv ath0 get_wpa 
A] Yes this command shows the settings made to 1 / 2 etc

4] What are the additionals commands or settings I am missing? Is WPA
Supplicant the ONLY solution for WPA / WPA2?

Looking forward to your replies again ... 

Thanks
