hi, I have a AR5418 wireless card within Macbook pro 3rd, i have been using Madwifi(svn-3637) which is working great. When linux kernel 2.6.27-rc5 getting released, I decided to git ath9k a try, but unfortunately it doesn't working for me. My system is Ubuntu hardy 64bit, here is the log from kernel.log: {{{ 8811 Sep 6 02:34:48 matrix kernel: [ 17.279302] NET: Registered protocol family 17 8812 Sep 6 02:34:48 matrix kernel: [ 17.318620] ath9k: 0.1 8813 Sep 6 02:34:48 matrix kernel: [ 17.318890] ath9k 0000:0b:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 16 (level, low) -> IRQ 16 8814 Sep 6 02:34:48 matrix kernel: [ 17.318974] ath9k 0000:0b:00.0: setting latency timer to 64 8815 Sep 6 02:34:48 matrix kernel: [ 17.448317] phy0: Selected rate control algorithm 'ath9k_rate_control' .... 8885 Sep 6 02:35:16 matrix kernel: [ 54.175476] ath0: authenticate with AP 00:1b:11:a2:a6:ca 8886 Sep 6 02:35:16 matrix kernel: [ 54.175524] ath0: privacy configuration mismatch and mixed-cell disabled - disassociate 8887 Sep 6 02:35:16 matrix kernel: [ 54.177783] ath0: authenticated 8888 Sep 6 02:35:16 matrix kernel: [ 54.177790] ath0: associate with AP 00:1b:11:a2:a6:ca 8889 Sep 6 02:35:16 matrix kernel: [ 54.177795] ath0: mismatch in privacy configuration and mixed-cell disabled - abort association }}} The router is D-Link 624+A using WPA2 for authentication, the software I'm using to management the network is wicd, which has no problem with Madwifi. If you need any detail information, feel free to contract me.
