Hi list, I have a recent build (July 1st) and running it as a wireless AP (with hostapd WPA-PSK TKIP) using an atheros card (Netgear WG311T). I've been trying to get an 802.11b client on and I noticed the -pureg option doesn't seem to stick at bootup. e.g. this rc.conf line ifconfig_ath0="ssid Lamp channel 9 mediaopt hostap -pureg up" Maybe -pureg should be specified somewhere else in that line (I also tried "-pureg ssid Lamp channel 9 mediaopt hostap up")? Anyways, I have to login and manually set ath0 to -pureg in order for the 802.11b client to associate. On the side, this same 802.11b client, which runs Windows XP SP2 on a Thinkpad T41 with an Intel Pro Wireless 2100 card will crash both 6.2-RELEASE and 7.0-CURRENT with medium traffic (e.g. streaming radio). On the 6.2 system, the backtrace indicated that the crash occurred in the atheros driver itself ... though I don't have that core handy. I have no way to get the debugging information off of the 7.0 machine until I get a serial cable, but the crash is fairly simple to reproduce (The 6.2 system would crash 2-3 times a day due to this one client). Best Regards, Nathan Lay
