Hi guys,

I know that this wireless driver is under development and still in very much experimental states but how come I'm only connected at 1Mbps??

I am sure when I installed the thing months ago the site claimed upto at least b compatibility......


Scanpci -v reveals this:

pci bus 0x0002 cardnum 0x00 function 0x00: vendor 0x8086 device 0x4237
Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 5100 AGN [Shiloh] Network Connection
CardVendor 0x8086 card 0x1211 (Intel Corporation, Card unknown)
 STATUS    0x0010  COMMAND 0x0046
 CLASS     0x02 0x80 0x00  REVISION 0x00
 BIST      0x00  HEADER 0x00  LATENCY 0x00  CACHE 0x10
 BASE0     0xd8700000 SIZE 8192  MEM
 BASEROM   0x00000000  addr 0x00000000
 MAX_LAT   0x00  MIN_GNT 0x00  INT_PIN 0x01  INT_LINE 0x0b


With wificonfig giving:

# wificonfig -i iwh0 getparam
   bssid: 00:e0:4c:bf:a8:7c
   essid: Cisco-open
   bsstype: bss(ap, infrastructure)
   createibss: no
   channel: 1
   rates: 1
   authmode: opensystem
   encryption: wep
   wepkeyindex: 1
   signal: 15

I know I have a really bad router which although claims to be N-draft is more like chop-suey hence its name is similar! I am going to be upgrading to a Cisco 877W soon which I hope will change things at least in terms of router stability etc..... like in my other house I have an 857W which carries 9 servers behind it.

What's the latest news on this driver anyway?? Any developments or anything as I can't currently connect to WPA2 with it either :-(

With Linux my notebook is fine just OpenSolaris devel stuff is a bit iffy.

Can anyone suggest anything or can I help in someway although not being a programmer but I do have a laptop available to test?

Regards,

Kaya
