Re: Re: iwlagn/iwl4965 problems with WEP and rmmod

[Ineya Ineya <ineya@post.sk>]

So I tested more versions of compat-wireless-old and found 2 things:=0D
i used same kernel - debian etchnhalf - 2.6.24-etchnhalf.1-amd64 #1 SMP=
=0D
=0D
1.=0D
packages:=0D
compat-wireless-old-2008-09-04=0D
compat-wireless-old-2008-09-05=0D
compat-wireless-old-2008-09-10=0D
compat-wireless-old-2008-09-12=0D
compat-wireless-old-2008-09-13=0D
compat-wireless-old-2008-09-14=0D
=0D
allow me to associate with my router and authenticate via WEP, I made r=
eboot between trying each of those (mainly because rmmod causes my kern=
el to crash: http://i34.tinypic.com/6gwj01.jpg)=0D
=0D
in each try I inserted built modules: cfg80211, mac80211, iwlcore and i=
wl4965=0D
=0D
using packages:=0D
compat-wireless-old-2008-09-15=0D
compat-wireless-old-2008-09-16=0D
=0D
with these packages I can\'t associate with my router, and I get messag=
e:=0D
wlan0: association with AP 00:19:5b:e0:f3:20 timed out=0D
=0D
procedure is the same, except that module iwl4965 is now called iwlagn,=
 and I have to manually add iwl4965.o to iwlagn in makefile in iwlwifi =
directory=0D
=0D
I tried to make a diff between version 2008-09-14 and 2008-09-15, which=
 I hoped would be small, but the number of changes is huge. which makes=
 it hard to locate possible bug/change, which is causing this.=0D
=0D
2:=0D
I also found, that monitor mode seems to cause some troubles. After fre=
sh reboot drivers work fine and association is OK, but if I switch off =
wlan0, change mode to monitor, switch on card, play a bit (tcpdump, air=
odump-ng) and then again, switch off, set mode to managed, switch on an=
d try to connect to my router then association works, but I\'m not able=
 to get any IP and dhcpclient fails on timeout.=0D
