    RPI + alfa036nh+terminal wifi association with wpa_supplicant = problem

    Hi , i have been struggling around this issue for 2 days .
    I am bulding in my raspberry a configuration that puts my RPI in a router mode (providing dhcp ips to a switch connected on eth0 port)
    and my RPI will have an alfa036nh wifi card (RA3070) that will get connected to some AP , and then will forward requests from and to eth0 <-> Wifi .
    However , i am doing everything in terminal mode to not waste much memory on the device witch only have 512M .
    So , the goal is creating a preconfigured script that will do the job for me .
    I get an error on the authentication using wpa_supplicant .
    I have read somewhere that this could be missing modules to my kernel , but i am in RPI , and i dont have the chance to install backports wireless on it .

    So , the script is something like this :



    What i did was creating an empty wpa_supplicant.conf file to not store any data , i am doing this way because i will connect to multiple APS and not only 1 specific .
    Driver wext gives me errors , and the only way is using nl80211 in wpa_supplicant connection .
    But i get multiple errors :


    Anyone have any idea how to solve this issue ?
    i have already installed "ralink-firmware" , but got no success .
    I am doing this in kali 1.1.0a to be more lighter on memory .

    Problem solved .
    I could not found what was the cause of this problem , and since i did not need a pentest distribution for this project , i removed kali rpi and installed the minibian image .
    after this point was just :
    installing wpasupplicant , ralink firmware ,wireless tools and iptables
    everything is working fine now .
