Hi, We are encountering serious AD-HOC problems: . Commands are run successfully . The network is theoretically created . It is not visible for other devices and the DMESG show that an error occurs and the firmware reboots More info: . The box running Linux is the VAR SOM OM44 . The operation system we are using is Ubuntu 12.04 LTS on the 3.4.0-1490-omap4 kernel. . The processor is in the ARM architecture. . WiFi card: Murata LBEH59XUHC. . WiFi driver: wl12xx, wlcore firmware wl127x-fw-5-sr.bin with Rev 6.3.10.0.135. . Network connection through the router is working. Network manager is used to configure the connection. . Ad-hoc mode connection is not working - the network is not visible to other computers. Commands used to configure the network in adhoc mode are as follows (wlan0 is the WiFi interface name): 1. Using iw: . ifconfig wlan0 down . iw wlan0 set type ibss . ifconfig wlan0 up . iw wlan0 ibss join ADHOC_TEST 2437 2. Using iwconfig . ifconfig wlan0 down . iwconfig wlan0 mode ad-hoc . iwconfig wlan0 channel 6 . iwconfig wlan0 essid ADHOC_TEST . ifconfig wlan0 up Attached you will find the dmesg messages (dmesg.txt). Using the latest backport of Compat Wireless backports-3.10-rc1-2 did not help. Testing with different WiFI dongles gave different results. TP Link WN725N that uses the Realtek 8192cu driver and is based on the RTL8188CUS-GR chipset is working correctly in AD-HOC mode. Could you guide us in anyway in resolving this issue?
