How to connect wifi if there is no passphrase for the SSID

$

Hi

I have a Linksys EA3500 router which has a simple security key to connect to the SSID. The blog to enable the WiFi -Intel Galileo Meets Wireless - Malinov Family Web Presence tells to use the passphrase to connect to the SSID. Is there a workaround to indicate the security key instead of passphrase?

wpa_passphrase MyWiFi << EOF > /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf

 

Additional Info when /etc/init.rd/networking restart happened

following errors existed

Line 2: unknown global field 'Passphrase must be 8..63 characters'.

Line 2: Invalid configuration line 'Passphrase must be 8..63 characters'.

Failed to read or parse configuration '/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf'.

 

I have Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6230 and hence I used the firmware - iwlwifi-6000g2b-ucode-17.168.5.1.tgz  as indicated in iwlwifi - Linux Wireless .  Is this correct?
