Subject: No connection with ath5k 5424
Date: Sun, 05 Oct 2008 20:34:05 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <48E95CFD.8080308@optonline.net> (raw)
I've installed the latest compat-wireless-2.6-old on Debian 2.6.26-1
i686 v2.6.26-6, i.e. the latest available, I believe.
naga:~/compat-wireless-2.6-old# cat compat-release
v4.5-56-gcd7615b
I can build, install, and modprobe the ath5k module, giving:
Oct 5 20:31:09 naga kernel: [17974.660295] ACPI: PCI Interrupt
0000:03:00.0[A] -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17
Oct 5 20:31:09 naga kernel: [17974.660324] PCI: Setting latency timer

chip found (MAC: 0xa3, PHY: 0x61)
Oct 5 20:31:09 naga kernel: [17974.814333] udev: renamed network
interface wlan0 to ath0
When I try to ifup the interface, connecting through DHCP, I get no
connection, and in the kernel log, I just get:
Oct 5 20:32:17 naga kernel: [18042.759550] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): ath0:
link is not ready
iwlist ath0 scan works, however.
Thanks,
Jerry Quinn
