Bug#566543: ath5k: regression: unable to connect to AP on channel 13
Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.32-5
Severity: normal
With kernels 2.6.26 and 2.6.30 I am able to connect to an AP on channel 13 without problems, with the following /etc/modprobe.d/cfg80211_reg.conf :
options cfg80211 ieee80211_regdom=EU
On linux-image-2.6.32-trunk-686 I am not able to connect, nor does the AP show up when running iwlist scan.
I have tried both with and without the ieee80211_regdom option, as well as ieee80211_regdom=NO. cfg80211 autodetects regulatory domain DK if nothing is specified.
My configuration is as follows:
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet static
wpa-driver wext
wpa-ssid pingvin
wpa-psk mykey
address 192.168.1.10
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.1
dns-nameservers ...
dns-search ...
dmesg output with ieee80211_regdom=NO:
