It could also be interference, and potentially other things as well. Run "athstats" at a command prompt or the command page and you may get some helpful info. My trusty old pre-1.0 pfSense AP always shows tens of thousands of errors on the ath interface but it works fine. It's one of those things I want to look at closer eventually, but I don't have any problems with it, so it hasn't been a priority. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
