Hi, I'm running an ad-hoc network with two pandaboards using the following commands to setup the network: root@panda0 # ip link set dev wlan0 address 7e:78:47:8c:26:52 root@panda0 # iw dev wlan0 set type ibss root@panda0 # ip link set dev wlan0 up root@panda0 # iw dev wlan0 ibss join panda-mesh 2412 02:72:CF:28:19:1A root@panda0 # iw phy phy0 set rts 100 root@panda0 # ip addr add 10.10.10.52/24 dev wlan0 and root@panda1 # ip link set dev wlan0 address 7e:78:47:8c:26:53 root@panda1 # iw dev wlan0 set type ibss root@panda1 # ip link set dev wlan0 up root@panda1 # iw dev wlan0 ibss join panda-mesh 2412 02:72:CF:28:19:1A root@panda1 # iw phy phy0 set rts 100 root@panda1 # ip addr add 10.10.10.53/24 dev wlan0 After this, the nodes list each other in a station dump. I then run ping: root@panda0 # ping 10.10.10.53 but only two requests are transmitted before the devices restart as seen in the attached dmesg logs. The tcpdump from panda1 is attached in tcpdump.txt. I have attached the kernel config and here is some additional info: root@panda0 # uname -a Linux n52 3.1.6-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Jan 3 03:26:01 UTC 2012 armv7l ARMv7 Processor rev 2 (v7l) OMAP4 Panda board GNU/Linux root@panda0 # modinfo wl12xx filename: /lib/modules/3.1.6-1-ARCH/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/wl12xx/wl12xx.ko.gz author: Juuso Oikarinen author: Luciano Coelho license: GPL srcversion: DC3EDD5C82CB353BCE97039 depends: mac80211,cfg80211 vermagic: 3.1.6-1-ARCH SMP preempt mod_unload modversions ARMv7 p2v8 parm: debug_level:wl12xx debugging level (uint) parm: fwlog:charp parm: keymap:FW logger options: continuous, ondemand, dbgpins or disable I see some commit logs from medio 2011 about the wl12xx watchdog, so I assume that they have made it into the 3.1 kernel.
