Last time it failed, the AP was completely dead. No beacons, etc.. This time it was still beaconing, but auth failed: Trying to associate with 00:1d:0f:b9:df:2d (SSID='quimby-net' freq=2472 MHz) Authentication with 00:1d:0f:b9:df:2d timed out. A machine reboot was _not_ needed this time to revive the card. Module unload cycle was enough to bring it back to life. I'm really unsure what's going on and if these two failures are related to each other. Probably not... -- Greetings, Michael. -- 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
