[Madwifi-users] noob having problem with AR5004G

[Jim B. <jr...@gm...>]

Slackware 10.1

Kernel 2.6.15 - followed guide for madwifi

 

Installed latest tarball from madwifi

 

Followed the guide and everything worked out well. I did a wlanconfig ath0
list scan and I could see my access point, which is unencrypted out of the
box. No after a reboot when I run the same command I get nothing. The
ath_pci modules load automagically and wlan_scan_sta
 Is loaded but I get nothing now. 
 
Also, in X/KDE I was playing with kwifi manager and I could see my signal
strength and stuff. Now I get no signal. I now the AP works because I am
connected to it now on my winblowz box.
 
And ideas? I tried unloading and re-loading the modules. I re-checked my
kernel config, and all is ok. All the correct modules is loaded.
 
Iwconfig shows ath0 is setup correctly amd Linux quality 0/94 tx-power
17dbm.
 
Any ideas what might be up?
 
Thanks
