From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Robert Martin Subject: NETDEV-BCM43XX BUG - Failure to associate AP with latest devscape git pull..

I am able to see operating APs with an "iwlist wlan0 scan", but I am unable to connect to the AP, with or without WEP encryption enabled (tried none, hex and ascii; nothing worked). This is with the latest wireless-dev pull and a vanilla 2.6.19 kernel with "irqpoll" option enabled, otherwise it misbehaves. I would be happy to give more information if requested, or try different kernel/firmware options. Here I have provided my dhclient connect attempt output with the relevant tcpdump. Thank you greatly for your time. ========DHCLIENT ATTEMPT OUTPUT BEGIN====================================================== Internet Systems Consortium DHCP Client V3.0.4-RedHat Copyright 2004-2006 Internet Systems Consortium.
