I did try that numerous times. To paraphrase you, I'm not stupid!
I replaced _your_ values in my report because you decided to out them
for public consumption anyway and also to be able to compare our
logs line by line more easily.
Please trust me,
IT DOES NOT WORK.
I can plug in my trusted values (validated to work with other computers
and my AP) in any combination,
iwconfig wlan0 essid ...
iwconfig wlan0 key restricted ...
iwconfig wlan0 essid ... key restricted ...
IT JUST DOES NOT WORK.
Try to absorb this info like a man.
