Re: airport extreme with linux-2.6.18
Hi all,
i am still having trouble with bcm43xx. Had some usb wlan stick running. Unfortunately gave it away as i had bcm43xx running the first time with another access point. Since i have my own asus wl500gp router with its own openwrt linux running on it i cannot connect with bcm43xx while i can with macos.
I tried like
% ifconfig eth2 up
% iwconfig eth2 essid <essid> key <key> rate 11M
% dhclient eth2
I switched on debugging in softmac and bcm43xx and dmesg shows sth like:
bcm43xx: Microcode rev 0xf5, pl 0xcc (2004-01-21 19:04:18)
bcm43xx: Radio turned on
bcm43xx: Chip initialized
bcm43xx: 30-bit DMA initialized
bcm43xx: Keys cleared
bcm43xx: Selected 802.11 core (phytype 2)

SoftMAC: Open Authentication with 00:17:31:bf:73:54 failed, error code: 13
Does anybody know whats going wrong?
% iwlist eth2 scanning
shows my network as well does kismet run without any issues, only the connect fails =(.
Any help is very welcome. I don't have eny firewall rules, all iptables chains are open.
If i set wep to off only for test i see the same in dmesg (after unloading the module and restarting modproge, ifconfig .. up, iwconfig...
