Hello guys.
Fresh drivers are installed.(compat wireless, downloaded them today
couple of hours ago)
Bellow is line from my start up scripts:

wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -c /root/wpa.conf&

Below is wpa .conf

network={
    ssid="dlink"
    priority=4
    key_mgmt=NONE
}

To remind you my lay out: home server, eth1 - internet, eth0 - lan.
from server there is cable to switch. from switch: 1 cable goes to
wireless access point(abg mode set on daily basis) 1 cable goes to my
computer(when no one is at home, unfortunately i cant have cable around
house)



Error I am getting when router is switched to N only mode.

wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -c /root/wpa.conf

I have noticed also couple of things, and it is kinda weird.
IPV6 doesnt work on my wifi. no matter what i do. I run radvd on server,
so everything should work automatically. However, wifi doesnt pick up
advertisements.
When i set up ipv6 address and routing manually it works for some
time(from minute to 10 minutes) then connectivity for ipv6 disappears.
ipv4 works fine.

Also, tunnels (like gre tunel for example) dont work over ath9k. virtual
networks dont work over it as well. it seems only ipv4 works over it,
havent tried ipx or anything that exotic, since i hav eno clients or
reasons for that.

I can pretty confidently say, its not my fault(and i do things correctly
and with understanding), since everything I want to set up, like
tunnels(lets say between virtual machine on my pc and router) - work. So
i am confident it's not my screwy hands.

Please advice on following actions.

Regards
Dmitri
