andreltr:/home/andreltr # ifconfig ath0 up
andreltr:/home/andreltr # modprobe wlan_scan_sta
andreltr:/home/andreltr # wlanconfig ath0 list scan
andreltr:/home/andreltr # 
andreltr:/home/andreltr # 
andreltr:/home/andreltr # 

NOTHING HAPPENS!  I tried the second way then:

andreltr:/home/andreltr # iwlist ath0 scan
ath0      No scan results

NOTHING HAPPENS!

andreltr:/home/andreltr # iwconfig ath0 ap any
andreltr:/home/andreltr # wlanconfig ath0 list scan

There is an open ap called "dlink".

NOTHING HAPPENS EITHER!

andreltr:/home/andreltr # dhclient ath0
