I've modified it a little, and now it works 100% without patch, by
using "iwlist scan" instead of "sleep 1" ...
iwconfig wlan0 mode Managed essid xxx key restricted xxx
iwconfig wlan0 ap auto channel auto # auto outside loop
for((i = 0; i < 5; i++))
do
iwlist wlan0 scan >/dev/null #use scan instead of sleep
iwconfig $DEV | grep -q "Access Point: Not-Associated"
[ $? -ne 0 ] && break
echo ".\c"
done
So, this will work for older kernel and well as 2.6.29-rc8.
Rafael, can we close the case? It's the iwconfig sequence that used to
work on 2.6.28-rc3 but now needs to be updated for 2.6.29-rc8.
Thanks,
Jeff.
