b43 fails to associate

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I have wifi card on BCM4318 chipset which is supported by b43 modules.
Still it fails to associate with my wireless access point (open/no
keys setup). I have another linux box which works fine with the access
point using ipw2200 module. iwevent shows in a loop:

I have already tried vanila 2.6.24 and patch set 'everything' from
wireless-dev.git, no luck. I have no idea how to get more debug info,
to track down the problem. Is it know problem with the driver or
should I try some tweaks?

Thanks,
Ivan

p.s. Here is a snippet from dmesg:
