Alive or hacking?

Back from dead... or not
So I see... Nabaztag should work again. YAY! Except.. I can't get mine to work. It seems that it doesn't work with Apple Airport Extreme. I tried to change channel to 11 but it didn't help. I assigned own IP address for the bunny but no. I can see from routers logs that I tries to connect every 30 seconds.

Jan 23 19:38:58    Severity:5    Associated with station X
Jan 23 19:38:58    Severity:5    Installed unicast TKIP key for supplicant X

If I remember correctly the last time I got it working was when I changed encryption to plain WPA. But there isn't that option anymore. There is just WPA/WPA2 personal. I read from Apple's forum that

"For the Apple routers, the TKIP encryption protocol is used when these routers are configured for "WPA/WPA2 Personal." In addition, wireless clients capable of using the stronger AES/CCMP protocol can connect with that protocol as well.

When the AirPorts are configured for "WPA2 Personal" only clients capable of supporting AES/CCMP can connect."

So TKIP should work. It's not that, or is it?

One really irritating thing is that http://www.nabaztag.com/ site is completely in French. If you advertise that now your Nabaztags work and all, could you translate those sites to English? You should be able to English. I don't need proper translation. Google one would be nice. But http://translate.google.com doesn't work on that site. WTF?


Also I was thinking of the possibility to bring my bunny to university. But our university wifi needs web login information. And it is not possible to connect Nabaztag to that kind of network.


Arduino + RFID
But this is something I'm looking for: Hacked: Nabaztag + Arduino + RFID = send any custom data to your bunny, Hacking the Nabaztag – Arduino injects via I2C data into RFID Reader, NabaztagInjector – An Arduino RFID Hack

I'm thinking of joining to local Hacklab. Maybe I just bring my bunny to them and give permission to do what they want.
