Hi list :) I have OpenBSD 3.8 on a PowerBook G4, an Avaya wireless card (wi0) and my AP. My problem is when I active the WEP in the AP (WEP-Open), my wireless lost connection.
This my card configuration: wicontrol -e 1 -k abcde123456 -t 6 -n MyName -p1 -f 6 my AP Information is: ap[0]: netname (SSID): [ MyName ] BSSID: [ 00:18:3f:04:85:21 ] Channel: [ 6 ] Beacon Interval: [ 100 ] Quality/Signal/Noise [signal]:[ 57 / 111 / 54 ] [dBm]:[ 57 / -38 / -95] Capinfo: [ ESS PRIV ] And the output of my card after configure it: NIC serial number: [ 01UT44440540 ] Station name: [ WaveLAN/IEEE node ] SSID for IBSS creation: [ IBSS ] Current netname (SSID): [ MyName ] Desired netname (SSID): [ MyName ] Current BSSID: [ 00:18:3f:04:85:21 ] Channel list: [ 2047 ] IBSS channel: [ 6 ] Current channel: [ 6 ] Comms quality/signal/noise: [ 61 112 51 ] Promiscuous mode: [ Off ] Process 802.11b Frame: [ Off ] Port type (1=BSS, 3=ad-hoc, 6=Host AP): [ 1 ] MAC address: [ 00:02:2d:3a:25:5e ] TX rate (selection): [ 6 ] TX rate (actual speed): [ 2 ] Maximum data length: [ 2304 ] RTS/CTS handshake threshold: [ 2347 ] Create IBSS: [ Off ] Antenna diversity (0=auto,1=pri,2=aux): [ ] Microwave oven robustness: [ Off ] Roaming mode(1=firm,3=disable): [ ] Access point density: [ 1 ] Power Management: [ Off ] Max sleep time: [ 100 ] Enhanced Security mode: [ ] Intersil Prism2-based card: [ 0 ] Card info: [ Lucent WaveLAN/IEEE, Firmware 7.28 variant 1 ] Encryption: [ On ] Encryption algorithm: [ Firmware WEP ] Authentication type (1=OpenSys, 2=Shared Key): [ ] TX encryption key: [ 1 ] Encryption keys: [ ][ ][ ][ ] And I don't know how active the Authentication type, because the -A option from wicontrol does not work for my card. Someone help me please to active my card using WEP Thanks and Regards !!!
