A few things to check:

1) Can you see your access point?

 
--- Code: ---iwlist ath0 scanning
--- End code ---

This should list all visible networks, including your own.


2) Does that long hex key in your wpa_supplicant.conf file match the one generated by the wpa_passphrase command?

A foolproof method is to stream the command output directly to file:


--- Code: ---echo ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant > wpa_supplicant.conf

wpa_passphrase your_essid your_passphrase >> wpa_supplicant.conf
--- End code ---


3) Was the the config file saved to the /opt directory?


If everything checks out, the following commands should work:


--- Code: ---sudo wpa_supplicant -i ath0 -c /opt/wpa_supplicant.conf &

udhcpc -i ath0
--- End code ---


If not, please post the error messages received.
