[issue590] WPA passphrase messup in netcard-config

[Marcel Meckel]

New submission from Marcel Meckel <marcel at thermoman.de>:

Hi,

using netcard-config with WPA and a PSK of 62 chars results in
wpa_supplicant warnings:

  WARNING: plaintext or ascii WPA key has 124 characters,
  it must have between 8 and 63 to be valid.

Looks like you're not passing the plaintext along but
a string which is double the lenght - maybe the hex'ed
version?

I confirmed it's working with wpa_cli and

  remove_network 0
  add_network
  set_network 0 ssid "foobar"
  set_network 0 psk "62chars"
  enable_network 0

Greetings,
Marcel.
