[Bug 37821] Re: Regular network drops with madwifi
I've fight with this problem for long time. This is about a algorithm in HAL called ANI (Ambient Noise Immunization). ANI avoid a common nightmare called 'stuck beacon error', but in some chipsets brings low performance and recurrent disconnections. Since 9.4 version there's the possibility to turn off at runtime with a sysctl event. Try this: TERMINAL sysctl -w dev.wifi0.intmit=0 If it's ok you can edit /etc/sysctl.conf and add 'dev.wifi0.intmit=0' at end of file for set it at boot time.

@Chris: > Well Matteo, I think that various people have various opinions on the > matter. It's probably best not raking over those old coals again is > it? ;-) I guess it is not. Sorry about that. Didn't mean to offend anyone though. However, maybe in my case it is not this very bug, but symptoms are the same and I couldn't in any way get my wifi card to work correctly with madwifi. - Disabling Network Manager didn't help (see my previous post) - sudo iwpriv ath0 bgscan 0 didn't help. - A few other "solutions" I found on similar bug reports didn't help. The only way I could get connected was by getting rid of madwifi and using ndiswrapper + windows drivers. I tried 8 linux distros, including Ubuntu; all of them booted with the live CD come out of the box with madwifi as the driver of the wifi card, the card is recognized and supposed to be working; however ALL of them exhibit more or less the behaviour described in this report: I can connect every once in a while and then lose connection soon. Latest version today of all the distros I tried, though probably this doesn't mean they include the latest version of madwifi. Both in Ubuntu and Sabayon, I could easily get the connection working (at least as well as solid and fast as in windows) by replacing madwifi with ndiswrapper, without even touching network manager. -- Regular network drops with madwifi https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/37821 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I might be related: I have a netgear PCMCIA card and a netgear router. I use 7.10 and wpa_supplicant with roaming configuration. Connection seems quite stable as long as I'm browsing or reading mails, but: - watching movie from an NFS share (to server is connected via UTP to the same router) causes the link to be dropped every once in a while - starting to copy from the NFS share (ie.: a movie) to the laptops disk causes the link to be dropped in a few seconds. Link than comes up, lights show heavy traffic and than link gets dropped in a few seconds againand so on. The above symptoms (hardly any link drops on low traffic intensity, and lots of drop on high int.) show me, that the driver has issues on high load. As I said this might not be related, but I'm no expert, however, I'm glad to provide more info or write a new bugreport in case you think it's relevant. -- Regular network drops with madwifi https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/37821 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 37821] Re: Regular network drops with madwifi
It is indeed a problem with Network Manager, and not the madwifi drivers. I have worked around this by uninstalling network manager, and simply configuring wpa_supplicant by hand. This involved putting a startup script in /etc/init.d that starts wpa_supplicant at bootup. If you want to make it able to start, stop, and restart it like a normal debian-style init.d script, then you'll have to create a different one. Mine's just a quick hack, and it's all I need: #!/bin/bash wpa_supplicant -Bw -qq -Dmadwifi -iath0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf Of course, adjust options to suit your interface and configuration file path, etc...After putting this script in /etc/init.d, I made a symlink to that script in /etc/rcS.d . It must come before networking in the boot process. I named it "S40iwpasupplicant" so that it came just before "S40networking". I'm sure there's a more official way of doing this that is cleaner, but this worked for me. -- Regular network drops with madwifi https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/37821 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
