F8: Broadcom 4311 won't connect; deauthentication reason=7 ??

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



On Fedora 8 I'm having trouble getting my 4311 to connect to the access point. I've posted on the b43 list, but it may not be a driver problem, but someplace else in the driver stack.

uname -r
2.6.23.9-85.fc8

lspci -n
04:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM94311MCG
wlan mini-PCI [14e4:4311] (rev 01)

cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wlan0
DEVICE=wlan0
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Wireless
ESSID=belkin

All the right kmods seem to be loaded:

lsmod | grep b43
b43                   133221  0
rfkill                  9297  2 b43
mac80211              115789  1 b43
input_polldev           7369  1 b43
ssb                    30149  1 b43

and the iw tools work OK:

iwconfig wlan0
