Greetings!
I've been wrestling getting two identical Lucent WaveLan Silvers talking
to each other. It works if I set it up on two -stable systems, but
-stable and -current cannot see each other it seems.
This also does not work in 5.1, but 5.0 works like a charm....
I can see the link blink on the cards for the traffic they generate, but
see no reaction to the transmissions from the other card whatsoever..
The wi driver in -current seem to be out of sync with ifconfig/wicontrol
as wicontrol warns about -p (I use adhoc mode):
warning: flag p deprecated, migrate to ifconfig mediaopt
and ifconfig with mediaopt says its not configured ??
Ideas very welcome!!
ifconfig from -stable:
wi0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 194.192.25.157 netmask 0xfffffffc broadcast 194.192.25.159
ether 00:02:2d:0d:27:8b
