hi all, in using ath5k instead of madwifi i'm not able to use dhcp anymore. The authentification with wpa_supplicant works, association as well. Setting interface ip, routes and resolver manually enables wlan networking too (as you can see). Anyone having an idea why dhcp refuses to work?
configuration: Linux 2.6.30-gentoo-r6 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1600MHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux on stable x86 (no ~x86) wpa_supplicant 0.6.9 call order: > wpa_supplicant -D wext -iwlan2 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf CTRL-EVENT-SCAN-RESULTS Trying to associate with 00:15:0c:85:f2:b0 (SSID='looney tunes' freq=2447 MHz) Associated with 00:15:0c:85:f2:b0 WPA: Key negotiation completed with 00:15:0c:85:f2:b0 [PTK=CCMP GTK=CCMP] CTRL-EVENT-CONNECTED - Connection to 00:15:0c:85:f2:b0 completed (auth) [id=0 id_str=] WPA: Group rekeying completed with 00:15:0c:85:f2:b0 [GTK=CCMP] >/sbin/dhcpcd -d -h marvin -m 2000 wlan2 wlan2: dhcpcd 4.0.13 starting wlan2: hardware address = 00:0b:cd:5a:c8:9c wlan2: executing `/lib/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-run-hooks', reason PREINIT wlan2: DUID = 00:01:00:01:0f:5a:17:4b:00:08:02:e2:64:34 wlan2: broadcasting for a lease wlan2: sending DHCP_DISCOVER with xid 0x2d1ebbd3, next in 3.46 seconds wlan2: sending DHCP_DISCOVER with xid 0x2d1ebbd3, next in 8.77 seconds etc pp. just searched in mailing list archive and the net, but only found an old ticket of madwifi project http://madwifi-project.org/ticket/1542 wireshark presents dhcp discovers, but there never is any response. dhcp host is my dsl box. dhcp host is presumed to be working, at least the inet radio box or using old madwifi driver present no problems. if there's no known issue, i had to enable debugging of relevant modules (mac80211, ath5k) too. but don't want to file a bug report before having asked some experts. thanks in advance. nevertheless, great work, Jörg -- Powered By Outblaze _______________________________________________ ath5k-devel mailing list ath5k-devel@lists.ath5k.org https://lists.ath5k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath5k-devel
