[ath9k-devel] Problem with D-link DWA-642

[ath9k-devel] Problem with D-link DWA-642

[Travis Athougies]

I recently switched to the new linux 2.6.27 kernel in anticipation of native
linux support for the atheros chipset in this card. Previously I used
ndiswrapper to use the windows driver and that worked perfectly. However,
with the native linux driver, when I use wpa_supplicant to connect, it does
connect and I can use dhcp to get an ip address(the ip address seems to be
right and I get dns information). However, I cannot ping the router or any
other computer on the network. Also, I cannot connect to the internet.

What could I do to resolve the issue? What logs should I post?

Do you have Network Manager running? If so please see:

To help debug I'd recommend to use wpa_supplicant manually and make sure
NM or another instance of wpa_supplicant is running.

Please provide the kernel log after ath9k module gets loaded until you
ping and do not see anything come back.
