Thanks for the suggestions. 'apt-cache search' does not find ieee80211_crypt_tkip or anything remotely similar. wpa supplicant i installed, however my wireless router seems to only offer WEP, which I have disabled for testing. I've brought up the issue on the linux-wireless list. Got a suggestion what to look at, but no ideas how to interpret. My naive next step is to compile a kernel with the latest drivers. > > On Wed, Jul 01, 2009 at 12:16:47AM +0300, Nick Kossifidis wrote: > > > > > Can you please sent the dmesg output when ath5k loads ? > > > Also do you see any messages on dmesg while scaning ? > > > > On loading the ath5k driver, dmesg reports: > > > > [83838.020161] ath5k 0000:05:00.0: PCI INT A disabled > > [83852.364249] cfg80211: Using static regulatory domain info > > [83852.364253] cfg80211: Regulatory domain: US > > [83852.364255] (start_freq - end_freq @ bandwidth), (max_antenna_gain, > > max_eirp) > > [83852.364258] (2402000 KHz - 2472000 KHz @ 40000 KHz), (600 mBi, 2700 mBm) > > [83852.364261] (5170000 KHz - 5190000 KHz @ 40000 KHz), (600 mBi, 2300 mBm) > > [83852.364264] (5190000 KHz - 5210000 KHz @ 40000 KHz), (600 mBi, 2300 mBm) > > [83852.364266] (5210000 KHz - 5230000 KHz @ 40000 KHz), (600 mBi, 2300 mBm) > > [83852.364269] (5230000 KHz - 5330000 KHz @ 40000 KHz), (600 mBi, 2300 mBm) > > [83852.364271] (5735000 KHz - 5835000 KHz @ 40000 KHz), (600 mBi, 3000 mBm) > > [83852.364274] cfg80211: Calling CRDA for country: US > > [83852.427844] ath5k 0000:05:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 18 (level, low) -> IRQ > > 18 > > [83852.427858] ath5k 0000:05:00.0: setting latency timer to 64 > > [83852.427916] ath5k 0000:05:00.0: registered as 'phy0' > > [83852.620221] wmaster0 (ath5k): not using net_device_ops yet > > [83852.620896] phy0: Selected rate control algorithm 'minstrel' > > [83852.620913] wlan0 (ath5k): not using net_device_ops yet > > [83852.621565] ath5k phy0: Atheros AR2425 chip found (MAC: 0xe2, PHY: 0x70) > > > > On attempting to scan: > > > > [84202.916169] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready > > > Good luck! > -- > Certifiable Loonix User 481801 -- Joel Roth -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
