I didn\'t try other kernels yet (I wanted to avoid that if possible).=0D
=0D
On some ubuntu forum I found, that people are often referring to:=0D
compat-wireless-2008-08-06.tar.bz2=0D
=0D
Using this version I was able to authenticate with my router using WEP.=
 So I can try to narrow it down by going closer to \'latest\' and see w=
hich version still works.=0D
=0D
Is there any specific option I could turn on to enable more logging or =
which would help to identify whether the problem is in compat-wireless?=

So I tested more versions of compat-wireless-old and found 2 things:

i used same kernel - debian etchnhalf - 2.6.24-etchnhalf.1-amd64 #1 SMP



1.

packages:

compat-wireless-old-2008-09-04

compat-wireless-old-2008-09-05

compat-wireless-old-2008-09-10

compat-wireless-old-2008-09-12

compat-wireless-old-2008-09-14



allow me to associate with my router and authenticate via WEP, I made r=

wl4965



using packages:

compat-wireless-old-2008-09-15

compat-wireless-old-2008-09-16



with these packages I can\'t associate with my router, and I get messag=
e:

wlan0: association with AP 00:19:5b:e0:f3:20 timed out



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 =
