I can confirm this issue too, but it's unique to the access point. I have connected successfully to dozens of other access points, but I'm trying to connect to an SMC Barricade SMC7004AWBR. The wireless connection is established, and persists (802.11b, no encryption). But I cannot draw an ipaddress.
If I try to manually configure the ip address via `ifconfig ath0 192.168.2.50`, I get this error message: SIOCSIFADDR: No buffer space available One thing I noticed... This access point only supports 11mbps 802.11b. The iwconfig output, though, thinks it's connected to 802.11g. Could this be part of the problem? ath0 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:"default" Nickname:"" Mode:Managed Frequency:2.437 GHz Access Point: 00:11:22:33:44:55 Bit Rate:11 Mb/s Tx-Power:8 dBm Sensitivity=1/1 Retry:off RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Power Management:off Link Quality=60/70 Signal level=-37 dBm Noise level=-97 dBm Rx invalid nwid:6168 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0 Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0 ath0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:55:44:33:22:11 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:64 Metric:1 RX packets:51 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:8 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:8215 (8.2 KB) TX bytes:2631 (2.6 KB) :-Dustin ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed ** Also affects: network-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- No NET with 2.6.27: No buffer space available https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/284377 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
