There's a lot of scanning going on in > /var/log/messages but no sign of my own network. Unfortunately you haven't shown what this output is. I asked you to do it to be sure the scan visited the channel w/ your ap and/or whether it sent a probe request frame or saw a beacon from the ap. The hal changes should not have altered anything for you because your eeprom setup appears to have default settings. I've been running these changes for a while but I'm likely testing different things than you. If you can send me the debug output it might help (feel free to send it directly). Otherwise you might try reverting the change. Since you still haven't sent me the mac+phy revs for your card I can't try to reproduce your setup. Sam
