Hi to everyone. I am having kernel 2.6.16.14 with the berlios kernel patch (not the dscape one).
I can scan the wireless networks but dhcpd doesn't get an ip address. ....... ........ monalisa:/etc/network# iwlist wlan0ap scan wlan0ap Scan completed : Cell 01 - Address: 00:12:A9:16:99:90 ESSID:"3Com" Protocol:IEEE 802.11bg Mode:Master Channel:13 Encryption key:off Bit Rates:54 Mb/s Extra: Rates (Mb/s): 1 2 5.5 6 9 11 12 18 22 24 36 48 54 Quality=100/100 Signal level=-215 dBm Extra: Last beacon: 2260ms ago dmesg gives me this when I use: "dhclient wlan0ap": ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0ap: link is not ready SoftMAC: Authentication timed out with 00:11:50:4d:b8:12 SoftMAC: Authentication response received from 00:12:f0:d1:10:f6 but no queue item exists. ieee80211: wlan0ap: IEEE80211_ASSOC_REQ received SoftMAC: Authentication response received from 00:12:f0:d1:10:f6 but no queue item exists. SoftMAC: Authentication response received from 00:12:f0:d1:10:f6 but no queue item exists. ieee80211: wlan0ap: IEEE80211_ASSOC_REQ received SoftMAC: Authentication response received from 00:12:f0:d1:10:f6 but no queue item exists. I checked with my pcmcia card and get internet access in seconds. Another thing to say is that when I run wpa_suplicant it send me this errors: wpa_supplicant -Dhostap -iwlan0ap -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf ioctl[PRISM2_IOCTL_PRISM2_PARAM]: Invalid argument ioctl[PRISM2_IOCTL_PRISM2_PARAM]: Invalid argument ioctl[PRISM2_IOCTL_HOSTAPD]: Operation not supported Failed to set encryption. ioctl[PRISM2_IOCTL_HOSTAPD]: Operation not supported Failed to set encryption. ioctl[PRISM2_IOCTL_HOSTAPD]: Operation not supported Failed to set encryption. ioctl[PRISM2_IOCTL_HOSTAPD]: Operation not supported Failed to set encryption. ioctl[PRISM2_IOCTL_PRISM2_PARAM]: Invalid argument ioctl[PRISM2_IOCTL_PRISM2_PARAM]: Invalid argument Trying to associate with 00:11:50:4d:b8:12 (SSID='cespedes' freq=0 MHz) ioctl[PRISM2_IOCTL_PRISM2_PARAM]: Invalid argument ioctl[PRISM2_IOCTL_PRISM2_PARAM]: Invalid argument ioctl[PRISM2_IOCTL_PRISM2_PARAM]: Invalid argument ioctl[PRISM2_IOCTL_HOSTAPD]: Operation not supported ioctl[PRISM2_IOCTL_PRISM2_PARAM]: Invalid argument Association request to the driver failed Authentication with 00:00:00:00:00:00 timed out.

My wpa_supplicant.conf is: #-------------------------------------------------- ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant ctrl_interface_group=0 eapol_version=1 ap_scan=1 fast_reauth=1 network={ ssid="cespedes" key_mgmt=NONE } #---------------------------------------- I have looked in several internet pages and have no luck with this. Can some one give me a hint? thanks for everything. Orlando. -- ----------- Javier O. Ramírez Martínez Key fingerprint = E7D8 22DC 5B71 72DC A06A 61F4 D823 35ED 2E67 CFB2 linux.mty.itesm.mx/~oramirez
