mee too. I am trying to verify all variants because I do remember that adding the
change_chan patch on top of clean 2.6.31 broke that while I do vaguely remember that
reverting this patch form 2.6.31.[23] did not make a working wlan.
However testing is time consuming - the machine requires allways a complete shutdown,
power off reboot.
Strange things were happening even in 2.6.31 - for example my ad-hoc network was listed
twice by iwlist scan - strangely one of the entries has 0db signal strength. Similar
listing on both ends.
Here is what the other end is reporting if that is of any help..
