OK. Since (I thought) I couldn't check whether my essid was set correctly then, I just retried. It does seem to associate with the AP, but I'm not sure. Manually setting an IP address and trying to use that didn't work, either. FYI, here's a dmesg output from the moment I tried to load the r67 driver (this time it didn't do the "No AP for five seconds" thing, though). After that failed attempt, I unloaded the driver and reloaded the r23 (working) version: [...] [13369.445364] zd1211 - http://zd1211.ath.cx/ - SVN_TRUNK [13369.445376] Based on www.zydas.com.tw driver version 2.4.0.0 [13369.580561] usb 4-2: reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3 [13369.713894] Release Ver = 4810 [13369.713904] zd1211:bulk out: wMaxPacketSize = 200 [13369.713908] zd1211:bulk in: wMaxPacketSize = 200 [13369.713911] zd1211:interrupt in: wMaxPacketSize = 40 [13369.713915] zd1211:interrupt in: int_interval = 1 [13369.713918] zd1211:interrupt out: wMaxPacketSize = 40 [13369.842142] zd1211:USB Download Boot code success [13369.844895] zd1211:MAC address = 00:01:38:4c:d0:37 [13369.848528] zd1211:AddrEntryTable = f7d4 [13369.852596] zd1211:RF_Mode = 00000004 [13369.852600] PA type: 0 [13369.852604] AiroHa RF [13369.852894] zd1211:Mixed Mode [13369.888601] zd1211:AllowedChannel = 000007ff [13369.892521] zd1211:LinkLEDn = 200 [13369.896550] AllowedChannel = 000107ff [13369.896555] Region:16 [13370.280575] zd1205: (exit) zd1205_config, /usr/src/modass/usr_src/modules/zd1211/src/zd1205.c line 2598 [13370.280857] zd1205: (exit) zd1205_init, /usr/src/modass/usr_src/modules/zd1211/src/zd1205.c line 8542 [13370.349658] usbcore: registered new driver zd1211 [13391.883115] zd1205: (enter) zd1205_open, /usr/src/modass/usr_src/modules/zd1211/src/zd1205.c line 4349 [13391.912774] zd1205: (exit) zd1205_open, /usr/src/modass/usr_src/modules/zd1211/src/zd1205.c line 4432 [13391.912810] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready [13393.056754] zd1211:Mixed Mode [13393.132510] zd1211:STA_ASSOCIATED with 00:06:f4:02:ac:6d [13393.132529] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): wlan0: link becomes ready [13393.606959] zd1211:zd1205: cmd = 8b03 [13393.606999] zd1211:zd1205: cmd = 8b09 [13393.607004] zd1211:zd1205: cmd = 8b1d [13393.607014] zd1211:zd1205: cmd = 8b27 [13403.668181] wlan0: no IPv6 routers present [13507.999492] zd1205: (enter) zd1205_close, /usr/src/modass/usr_src/modules/zd1211/src/zd1205.c line 4892 [13508.023785] zd1205: (exit) zd1205_close, /usr/src/modass/usr_src/modules/zd1211/src/zd1205.c line 4958 [13511.238585] usbcore: deregistering driver zd1211 [13511.238798] zd1211:USB ST Code = -108 [13511.239193] zd1211_disconnect [13534.500169] adt746x: setting fans speed to 118 (limit exceeded by 3 on CPU TOPSIDE) [13534.500182] adt746x: Setting speed to 118 for CPU TOPSIDE fan.
