I need some Fedora help. This new b43 user is having problems making a connection. He has a b-only AP of unspecified make with no encryption. He is using F8 with the default kernel (I think). He has done the following: Ruggiero wrote: > i used "system->adminstration>Network" and i configurated everything from > there...and the clicking on "activate wlan0" for a while my access point > communicate and in the log i see that it's connected... here are outputs: > if i use NetworkManager i see it's connecting...but after a while i get the > message "disconnected" Tail of dmesg: > wlan0: Initial auth_alg=0 > wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:0c:41:19:2d:c1 > wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:0c:41:19:2d:c1 > wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:0c:41:19:2d:c1 > wlan0: authentication with AP 00:0c:41:19:2d:c1 timed out > wlan0: authentication frame received from 00:0c:41:19:2d:c1, but not in > authenticate state - ignored > wlan0: RX disassociation from 00:0c:41:19:2d:c1 (reason=4) All the b43 messages are normal. He sees the AP with a scan, but never authenticates. Any suggestions?
