I don't appear to have the same problem with: -latest version of iwlwifi (0.0.35) - gentoo-sources-2.6.20 kernel (patched with a relatively old mac80211 package) I believe fedora has 0.0.24 of iwlwifi embedded? So the problem might have been fixed already. Writing this email, after executing your command, when associated on a wpa2 network. Ian. Andy Green wrote:
Hi folks - I have pretty decent functionality on the 3945abg laptop with the Fedora development kernel version of iwlwifi and WPA via wpa_supplicant. Connections can stay up over a couple of days or more when I am staying close to the AP. However if I perform this action: echo -n mon0 > /sys/class/ieee80211/phy0/add_iface I immediately lose association and cannot reacquire it until I remove the iwl3945 module and insert again. I don't have to do anything with the new interface, just create it. I tried setting the channel and mode of it, but that didn't help with reacquiring an association. In contrast I can bring up other virtual interfaces okay on, eg, zd1211 without losing an existing association to the same WPA network. -Andy - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
