With xe, nothing: with dc, I actually saw the card. Still, with 5.2.1R, the networking code doesn't see my NS1 server. 'No rout to host'... Could it be that using -CURRENT would work?

However, I know some laptops have general cardbus/pccard problems. Have you verified that other pccards work under FreeBSD with you laptop? If not, what model do you have (please post response to freebsd-mobile list)? Perhaps someone with the same model laptop can help you better than I. -- Jesse Guardiani, Systems Administrator WingNET Internet Services, P.O.

Also, different antennas have different gains. No. It seems like antenna is not the problem. I have tried connecting external one today, same poor perfomance. But... When I do run Windowz there are 2 different ways this card behaves. a) Managed by Windowz WiFi stack: - same poor perfomance, disconnections, etc b) Managed by supplied Proxim's client utility: - good link strength, works as it should Seems like client utility is doing some tweaks on the card (switching it's power level may be?) Actually I have bought myself Buffalo G54 card today. It is 3 times (!) cheaper then Proxim Orinoco and works perfectly with NDISualtor (it is Broadcom based): device = 'BCM4306(??) 802.11g Wireless NIC' Just thought I should warn everyone - do NOT buy crappy Proxim. Cheers, AL. p.s. Buffalo costs 54 singapore dollards here (it is about $32 usd) I should say it is very cheap for B/G card! p.p.s. I was looking for a G card with external connector, seems like now I have found one. Tomorrow will go buy a pack of them for my friends, to bring with me when I will go back to Russia.

Now, a new laptop connects, but drops ~ 80% (according to ping) of all packets sent from the AP (which is also my router) over wi0 to the laptop. When I send ping from the laptop, no replies are lost however. The laptop has an internal Intel wireless card. Specifically, an "Intel Pro Wireless LAN 2100 3A Mini-PCI" adapter. Things do associate and there is some connectivity in hostap mode using 128 bit encryption. This same laptop, when I disable the Intel 2100 and plug in any of the PCMCIA cards I use with other laptops, works perfectly. At first, I suspected something wrong with the card. However, it works perfectly with other AP's deployed at various shows/events I've attended recently (Usenix, IETF etc.) So, RMA'ing the card back to Dell will probably not do much good. Is anyone else successfully using clients to a FreeBSD 4.10 Stable system acting as an AP? Are there settings I need to tweak? As I said, with numerous Orinoco cards, other laptops connect to the FreeBSD AP as it is setup now just fine. On the AP, I use a Netgear 401 plugged into a PCI->PCMCIA adapter. wi0: port 0xec00-0xec3f,0xec80-0xecff mem 0xfdfff000-0xfdffffff irq 9 at device 7.0 on pci1 wi0: 802.11 address: 00:09:5b:0e:dd:dd wi0: using RF:PRISM2.5 MAC:ISL3873 wi0: Intersil Firmware: Primary 1.00.07, Station 1.03.06 Thanks, MikeC From owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Mon Aug 2 14:19:50 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 11E3E16A4CE for ; Mon, 2 Aug 2004 14:19:50 +0000 (GMT) Received: from hotmail.com (bay10-f36.bay10.hotmail.com [64.4.37.36]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id EF32A43D55 for ; Mon, 2 Aug 2004 14:19:49 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from tpen0010@hotmail.com) Received: from mail pickup service by hotmail.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC; Mon, 2 Aug 2004 07:19:49 -0700 Received: from 128.122.20.250 by by10fd.bay10.hotmail.msn.com with HTTP; Mon, 02 Aug 2004 14:19:49 GMT X-Originating-IP: [128.122.20.250] X-Originating-Email: [tpen0010@hotmail.com] X-Sender: tpen0010@hotmail.com From: "Michael Roberts" To: geffy@geffychan.co.uk Date: Mon, 02 Aug 2004 10:19:49 -0400 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed Message-ID: X-OriginalArrivalTime: 02 Aug 2004 14:19:49.0874 (UTC) FILETIME=[C54E8D20:01C4789B] cc: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org Subject: Re: DLink DWL-G650 (h/w ver.

If I put the card in before bootup, it will give the first set of errors that I listed during boot, then will give the "bfe0 timeout" errors after it has finished the boot scripts. So, that method doesn't work either. I haven't tried disabling my ethernet device.. though that's a good idea. How exactly do you do that? I tried "kldunload bfe", where bfe is my nic device, however that doesn't work, since bfe is built into the kernel. I tried syncing my sources and upgrading the kernel again, but something is broken in the sources, and the kernel doesn't compile even a GENERIC kernel. So, is there a way to unload a *part* of the kernel module -- namely bfe? Thanks for the help, it would be great if I could get this working. And it should work.... since it uses the ar5211.sys driver on the windows side, which means Atheros.... regards, Mike >From: Geffy >To: Michael Roberts >Subject: Re: DLink DWL-G650 (h/w ver.

I havent tried on the satellite series, but for the majority of tosh laptops you can hold escape as soon as you power on till it gives an error and says press f1 to enter setup (ie the bios,) (works on the tecra 750+ , tecra 8000, 8100, 8200 and portege a100 and another portege i forget the model number, so am pretty sure its a universal tosh laptop thing.) > > - > Julian Stacey.

Holding down F12 after power up till the red Toshiba script comes up give a chance to boot off cdrom. I've still not got into the BIOS proper though ... if there even is a BIOS interface.

The dwl-ag650 card has a chip in it that requires a more up to date hal to operate well. Otherwise you should not get errors reseting the part but since the FreeBSD code is so ancient (probably a year behind the current state of Atheros support) it's likely that one of a zillion changes have dealt with the issue. I have asked for help in updating the Atheros code but gotten few responses (none of which have produced something committable). I am in the process of releasing yet another new hal and may have a few days to try and update the FreeBSD code to include it. Otherwise you can always use the ndis support to run the windows driver.

Otherwise you > can always use the ndis support to run the windows driver. Hi Sam, There are a lot of maybe's in here, but I thought I'd see if I sounded useful.... I'm about to buy an IBM T42 laptop, I can choose between an Intel Centrino 2200bg [ndis only], a Cisco aeronet [uses the an driver], or an abg mini-pci card that's supposed to be based on an a Atheros 5001X. I'm a reasonably competent geek, but haven't done any serious kernel work. I am methodical and not prone to hysteria. I'd been planning to get the atheros based card, because it's sounded like you'd put together a nice driver. On the other hand, you're making it sound like we haven't kept up with it very well. First question, would the aeronet be a better choice? Second question, would a naive set of hands with *some but not huge amounts* of spare time be useful to you? It would probably be several weeks before the hardware even arrives..... g.

This notebook was running Windows XP till one day decided to crash and since then the feared blue screen of death started to appear, all the king horses and all the kings men couldn't put this little note book back in working condition. I made it boot diskless, took about 2 minutes, booted current, mounted the ntfs partition, recovered all important files, and is now running current - with some minor problems - but no crash yet. So bsdtar crashes, reboot hangs, but hey, the system recovers, and no panics! and this is current! even X11 is working. thanks for a great job! danny -- Daniel Braniss e-mail: danny@cs.huji.ac.il Manager of Computing Facilities phone: +972 2 658 4385 School of Computer Science and Engineering Fax: +972 2 561 7723 The Hebrew University Jerusalem Edmond Safra Campus, Givat Ram, Israel From owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Fri Aug 6 19:01:27 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7DE1216A4E4 for ; Fri, 6 Aug 2004 19:01:27 +0000 (GMT) Received: from rip.psg.com (splat.psg.com [147.28.0.39]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 67ABD43D49 for ; Fri, 6 Aug 2004 19:01:27 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from randy@psg.com) Received: from localhost ([127.0.0.1] helo=roam.psg.com) by rip.psg.com with esmtp (Exim 4.41 (FreeBSD)) id 1Bt9y2-0003QT-My; Fri, 06 Aug 2004 19:01:26 +0000 Received: from localhost ([127.0.0.1] helo=roam.psg.com.psg.com) by roam.psg.com with esmtp (Exim 4.41 (FreeBSD)) id 1Bt9xz-0004xy-JL; Fri, 06 Aug 2004 09:01:23 -1000 From: Randy Bush MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-ID: <16659.54659.99930.799959@roam.psg.com> Date: Fri, 6 Aug 2004 09:01:23 -1000 To: Danny Braniss References: <20040806072054.57FB043D39@mx1.FreeBSD.org> cc: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org Subject: Re: IBM ThinkPad X40, kudos to FreeBSD X-BeenThere: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Mobile computing with FreeBSD List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Fri, 06 Aug 2004 19:01:27 -0000 > I made it boot diskless, took about 2 minutes, booted current, mounted > the ntfs partition and that's where i get in trouble # fdisk ad0 ******* Working on device /dev/ad0 ******* parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=110048 heads=16 sectors/track=63 (1008 blks/cyl) Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1 parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=110048 heads=16 sectors/track=63 (1008 blks/cyl) Media sector size is 512 Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 Information from DOS bootblock is: The data for partition 1 is: sysid 7 (0x07),(OS/2 HPFS, NTFS, QNX-2 (16 bit) or Advanced UNIX) start 63, size 32764977 (15998 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 0/ head 1/ sector 1; end: cyl 1023/ head 15/ sector 63 The data for partition 2 is: sysid 12 (0x0c),(DOS or Windows 95 with 32 bit FAT (LBA)) start 32765040, size 2131920 (1040 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 1023/ head 255/ sector 63; end: cyl 1023/ head 15/ sector 63 ... # mount_ntfs /dev/ad0s1 /share mount_ntfs: /dev/ad0s1: Operation not supported by device randy From owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Fri Aug 6 19:34:08 2004 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-mobile@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.FreeBSD.org (mx1.freebsd.org [216.136.204.125]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id BE69616A4CE for ; Fri, 6 Aug 2004 19:34:08 +0000 (GMT) Received: from cs1.cs.huji.ac.il (cs1.cs.huji.ac.il [132.65.16.10]) by mx1.FreeBSD.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7908843D2F for ; Fri, 6 Aug 2004 19:34:08 +0000 (GMT) (envelope-from danny@cs.huji.ac.il) Received: from pampa.cs.huji.ac.il ([132.65.80.32]) by cs1.cs.huji.ac.il with esmtp id 1BtATf-000PkY-7z; Fri, 06 Aug 2004 22:34:07 +0300 X-Mailer: exmh version 2.7.0 06/18/2004 with nmh-1.0.4 To: Randy Bush In-reply-to: Your message of Fri, 6 Aug 2004 09:01:23 -1000 .
