I just wanted to say, I've had (and been using as my primary internet connection) a netgear wg311v2 in master mode, connecting with an atheros minipci abg card for: bigiron ~ # uptime 17:41:48 up 7 days, 15:36, 2 users, load average: 0.21, 0.91, 0.96 and plan on trying out some of denis' fixes for using wep. Currently, it doesn't like this client due to atheros setting the encryption bit before it's actually transmitting encrypted packets(doesn't like to do open auth), but I HAVE had success with an axim x50v using wep. wlan0 IEEE 802.11b+/g+ ESSID:"FooBarEdNetwork" Nickname:"FooBarEdNetwork" Mode:Master Frequency:2.462 GHz Access Point: 00:09:5B:BF:C1:79 Bit Rate:54 Mb/s Tx-Power=15 dBm Sensitivity=1/3 Retry min limit:7 RTS thr:off Encryption key:off Power Management:off Link Quality=48/100 Signal level=27/100 Noise level=0/100 Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0 Tx excessive retries:5259 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0 wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:09:5B:BF:C1:79 inet6 addr: fe80::209:5bff:febf:c179/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING PROMISC MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:1773853 errors:95974 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:1537954 errors:5259 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:1017708138 (970.5 Mb) TX bytes:776451584 (740.4 Mb) Interrupt:209 Base address:0x8000 (wlan0 is part of br0) Pat Erley |
