Right, that is what I tried to correct. _After_ 2.6.30, ath5k began reporting the regdomain from the EEPROM which means some channels (13 is a common case) are no longer accessible whereas they were before with static reg domains and no EEPROM support. That was the major change in the driver. Most other changes since 2.6.30 were in the upper-layers. I don't recall any changes to crypto in that timeframe. WRT to the original report, is only WEP causing problems (i.e. does WPA work?) -- Bob Copeland %% www.bobcopeland.com -- 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
