Hi!
I have two AR9281 mini PCIe devices in my router, one on 5GHz and the
other on 2.4GHz. The weird thing is, they act nice when only one of them
is plugged in, but if both, one of them is acting iffy.
An example:
I have these two hostname.if(5) files:
hostname.athn0:
==========8<==========
media autoselect
mode 11g
chan 10
nwid daniell
wpakey _
wpaprotos wpa2
mediaopt hostap
#nwflag hidenwid
inet6 eui64
up
##!/sbin/ifconfig athn0 media autoselect mode auto mediaopt hostap
#!/sbin/ifconfig athn0 chan 10
#!/sbin/ifconfig athn0 media autoselect mode 11g chan 10 mediaopt hostap
==========8<==========
hostname.athn1:
==========8<==========
media autoselect
mode 11a
chan 36
nwid daniell
wpakey _
wpaprotos wpa2
mediaopt hostap
#nwflag hidenwid
inet6 eui64
up
==========8<==========
athn1 comes up just fine, but athn0 gets configured only half-baked:
athn0: flags=8943<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
lladdr 04:f0:21:_
index 5 priority 4
groups: wlan
media: IEEE802.11 autoselect (autoselect mode 11a hostap)
status: active
ieee80211: nwid daniell chan 10 bssid 04:f0:21:_ wpakey _ wpaprotos
wpa2 wpaakms psk wpaciphers tkip,ccmp wpagroupcipher tkip
inet6 fe80::6f0:21ff:fe14:c78c%athn0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5
athn1: flags=8943<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
lladdr 04:f0:21:_
index 6 priority 4
groups: wlan
media: IEEE802.11 autoselect (autoselect mode 11a hostap)
status: active
ieee80211: nwid daniell chan 36 bssid 04:f0:21:_ wpakey _ wpaprotos
wpa2 wpaakms psk wpaciphers tkip,ccmp wpagroupcipher tkip
inet6 fe80::6f0:21ff:fe14:c837%athn1 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x6
See how athn0 didn't get the 11g option? But after I reconfigure it with:
# sh /etc/netstart athn0
# ifconfig athn0
athn0: flags=8943<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
lladdr 04:f0:21:_
index 5 priority 4
groups: wlan
media: IEEE802.11 autoselect mode 11g hostap
status: active
ieee80211: nwid daniell chan 10 bssid 04:f0:21:_ wpakey
0x228bb445239a88219823bbd178a4ea26efd3b25acb33ac634fb70a1186238b1e wpaprotos
wpa2 wpaakms psk wpaciphers tkip,ccmp wpagroupcipher tkip
inet6 fe80::6f0:21ff:fe14:c78c%athn0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5
... athn0 gets configured properly.
This is why there is a whole /sbin/ifconfig line at the end of the
`hostname.athn0' file (although now commented out), so that it
configures it (again) during boot.
Btw, the identical essid is not by accident, it eases things for me.
Nevertheless, I also tried it with different ones.
This has actually been the case since I've been using these devices (for
like 6 months or so), I just got around to write up this mail because
now it has been bothering me well enough :)
Not the worst thing -- I mean, it's not critical --, but if I can help
debug this somehow, I'd be happy to.
