--nFreZHaLTZJo0R7j Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Hello, Since yesterday, Intel 2200BG wifi card in my laptop stopped working all of sudden. Reboots and usual dances with driver (iwi(4)) did not help. Attached is relevant parts of dmesg(8) with debug.iwi=5 (also downloadable from http://193.124.210.26/iwi.dmesg). Basically, once I try to configure it, I will see "iwi0: firmware error" on the console. I did not do anything with the kernel or the base. Any ideas on how to fix it? Since this card gave me lots of troubles over the past, any one can recommend a decent mini-pci replacement? It looks like ath(4) chips are currently best supported. I am thinking of something AR9223-based, which should provide me with better experience and give 802.11n support as a nice bonus. Opinions? Thanks, ./danfe --nFreZHaLTZJo0R7j Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="iwi.dmesg" iwi_newstate: SCAN -> INIT flags 0x1 enter LOADING state exit LOADING state Setting MAC address to 00:16:6f:b2:61:51 sending command idx=0 type=11 len=6 Configuring adapter sending command idx=1 type=6 len=20 Setting .11bg supported rates (12) sending command idx=2 type=22 len=16 Setting .11a supported rates (8) sending command idx=3 type=22 len=16 Setting initialization vector to 4054530237 sending command idx=4 type=34 len=4 Enabling adapter sending command idx=5 type=2 len=0 iwi_newstate: INIT -> SCAN flags 0x1 enter SCANNING state Scan request: index 7 dwell 200/200/200 Scan 1 2.4GHz channels: 1/BCAST sending command idx=6 type=26 len=96 Notification (20) received frame len=139 chan=1 rssi=24 rssi_dbm=62 received frame len=226 chan=1 rssi=21 rssi_dbm=53 received frame len=226 chan=1 rssi=21 rssi_dbm=53 received frame len=349 chan=1 rssi=23 rssi_dbm=47 received frame len=145 chan=1 rssi=26 rssi_dbm=62 received frame len=129 chan=1 rssi=20 rssi_dbm=52 received frame len=349 chan=1 rssi=22 rssi_dbm=45 received frame len=145 chan=1 rssi=26 rssi_dbm=62 Scan of channel 2412 complete (1) Scan completed (1, 1) exit SCANNING state enter SCANNING state Scan request: index 8 dwell 200/200/200 Scan 1 2.4GHz channels: 6/BCAST sending command idx=7 type=26 len=96 iwi0: firmware error sending command idx=8 type=23 len=0 iwi0: firmware error enter LOADING state exit LOADING state Setting MAC address to 00:16:6f:b2:61:51 sending command idx=0 type=11 len=6 Configuring adapter sending command idx=1 type=6 len=20 Setting .11bg supported rates (12) sending command idx=2 type=22 len=16 Setting .11a supported rates (8) sending command idx=3 type=22 len=16 Setting initialization vector to 1453468842 sending command idx=4 type=34 len=4 Enabling adapter sending command idx=5 type=2 len=0 Notification (20) Notification (15) Notification (15) --nFreZHaLTZJo0R7j--
