Bug#677880: iwlwifi: flakey and slow connection, high "invalid misc" count
Source: linux-2.6
Followup-For: Bug #677880
Dear Maintainer,
*** Please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
Hi there.
First, thanks for your time.
It seems to be fixed in
Linux version 3.4-trunk-amd64 (Debian 3.4.1-1~experimental.1) (debian-kernel@lists.debian.org) (gcc version 4.6.3 (Debian 4.6.3-1) ) #1 SMP Wed Jun 6 10:34:53 CEST 2012
I have tested wifi at home and at work without options.
At home (WEP): The invalid misc count goes up very slowly, it has connected without any problem and it has been 1h without disconnecting. Besides speed is always 54 Mb/s and it does not change.
At work (no encryption): It does not work without
options cfg80211 ieee80211_regdom=EU
INFO: Now I'm at home.
I think I've turned on encryption at home after I started having problems with wifi.
Let me disable encryption and try again. Maybe this is the cause ... :-(
Thank you !!!
