If that fails and the 2nd number is seen then the driver shuts down. So I guess this amounts to disconnecting from the current ap on the 2nd number but I'm not sure how you can do the bg scan and still get the firmware to keep counting up to the larger number (it resets it's internal counter on channel change from what I recall). But it's been a while. Regardless you've got a knob now so you can set it to whatever you want. You shouldn't be missing beacons in such large numbers; it's a likely indicator of some other problem but since we don't know what exactly a bmiss means it's hard to say (e.g. the firmware may report a bmiss when the rssi of the received beacon frame is below a threshold in which case there may be a problem with the threshold setting).

scan stuck with if_iwi(4)
Hi, I recently upgraded my IBM ThinkPad X31 from 6.1-RELEASE to 6.1-STABLE after which the if_iwi(4) driver started dropping the connection at regular intervals when connected to my hostapd-based AP using WPA2 PSK CCMP. The dmesg output with debug.iwi=4 is listed below - it fails regularly (every 3 mins or so) with the message scan stuck after which the adapter is reinitialized and the connection lost for some seconds. The connection drop seems to be caused by the adapter suddently entering the SCAN state. I have been unable to reproduce this problem with 6.1-RELEASE. $ uname -a FreeBSD fangorn.brixandersen.dk 6.1-STABLE FreeBSD 6.1-STABLE #2: Tue Jul 18 11:16:02 CEST 2006 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 Jul 20 23:38:04 fangorn kernel: iwi0: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2915ABG mem 0xc020-0xc0200fff irq 11 at device 2.0 on pci2 Jul 20 23:38:04 fangorn kernel: iwi0: Ethernet address: 00:0e:35:fd:81:94 ...

Mark B.T.W. the new code is more stable for me. No more complete machine lockups. The WiFi led now binks though if you turn the radio off it stays lit / off depending apon the state it was in at the time.
