I've got a ZyAIR G-220 in a usb 1.1 port on a machine with a 2.6.12 kernel. It works fine as a client, but in Master mode, nothing sees it. I set up the stick with: ifconfig wlan0 10.0.2.254 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.2.255 up iwconfig wlan0 mode master essid laptop channel 3 Then, I get this from ifconfig and iwconfig: wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:13:49:2A:24:23 inet addr:10.0.2.254 Bcast:10.0.2.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::213:49ff:fe2a:2423/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:5 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:348 (348.0 b) wlan0 802.11b/g NIC ESSID:"laptop" Mode:Master Frequency=2.422 GHz Access Point: 00:13:49:2A:24:23 Bit Rate:1 Mb/s Retry:off RTS thr=2432 B Fragment thr:off Encryption key:off Power Management:off Link Quality=8/92 Signal level=7/154 Noise level=161/154 Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0 Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0 The client is a dwl-650 pcmcia card. I've explicitly set it into managed mode with essid laptop, but it never sees the zd1211. I also can't see it with my palmtop, which has wifi. dmesg says about the stick: usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 3 zd1211 device (0x0586,0x3401) found. zd1211 device on USB 1.1 Host Firmware Version = 4810 bulk out: wMaxPacketSize = 40 bulk in: wMaxPacketSize = 40 interrupt in: wMaxPacketSize = 40 interrupt in: int_interval = 1 bulk out: wMaxPacketSize = 40 EEPROM Version = 4330 USB Download Boot code success Downloaded firmware.

I've also tried the svn r34 driver from http://zd1211.ath.cx/zd1211 and the debian zd1211 driver. All work in managed mode; none work in master mode. So, what should I be looking for to make this work? How can I be sure it's sending out beacons? Thanks! Marc |

Hello, what is needed for the master mode to work? Regards, Nerijus |
