Sujith, Thanks for the reply! The latter iwconfig readout is from an old kernel version (3.2.39), where the card does indeed work. What I wish to report is that in a more recent kernel version (3.7.10), the card doesn't work (iwconfig says "no wireless extensions"). It's not a problem for me (I'm happily using the old kernel), but I thought it was worth reporting. Some Googling tells me that a number of people have run into similar problems (kernel versions >=3.3 breaking their AR928X cards). Maybe you guys have been made aware of this? https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1085309 Nick On Tue, Mar 5, 2013 at 11:03 PM, Sujith Manoharan <sujith@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Nick Thomas wrote: >> When I run the 3.7.10 kernel with the ath9k module loaded, the >> wireless does not work, and iwconfig wlan0 reports: >> >> wlan0: no wireless extensions. >> >> When I run the 3.2.39 kernel, the wireless works, and iwconfig wlan0 reports: >> >> wlan0 IEEE 802.11bgn ESSID:"HardFatCox" >> Mode:Managed Frequency:2.437 GHz Access Point: 00:22:75:49:42:F7 >> Bit Rate=48 Mb/s Tx-Power=15 dBm >> Retry long limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off >> Encryption key:off >> Power Management:on >> Link Quality=50/70 Signal level=-60 dBm >> Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0 >> Tx excessive retries:23 Invalid misc:11577 Missed beacon:0 >> >> My best guess is that recent driver revisions broke compatibility with >> my wireless card. > > The card is recognized properly by ath9k, since it is shown in the interface > list and it's even associated with HardFatCox :) > > What doesn't work ? > > Sujith -- 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
