Just following up from my previous email: I am actually setting the reg domain using: iw reg set GB (copy/pasted the IN from elsewhere - oops!) As for progress, however, I have tried the following: - setting the debug level to 0xfffffff. This still produces no additional output even with 8 set in printk. - removing the v9 firmware - same result as before - system fully locks up. - disabling ipv6 - gets rid of IPv6 interface not up warning but that’s not causing any problems and this didn’t make any difference. It doesn’t seem to matter what I try at the moment - all attempts to connect result in the system crashing which I guess is better than it just asking me for a password over and over - it looks like it is attempting association at this point which is good but I don’t know why the box is crashing out and dmesg -w doesn’t show any additional output before the freeze. If anyone has any more ideas I would be more than happy to try them! Thanks for the help so far Dan!
