Hello,
sorry, if I use the false mailing list.
I have an Atheros wifi card in an Acer Aspire 5104 WLMI laptop. The lspci says:
06:02.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR2413/AR2414
Wireless Network Adapter [AR5002G(S) 802.11bg] (rev 01)
I can connect to my wifi:
iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.
wlan0 IEEE 802.11bg ESSID:"mynet"
Mode:Managed Frequency:2.437 GHz Access Point: A1:A1:A1:A1:A1:A1
Bit Rate=1 Mb/s Tx-Power=20 dBm
Retry long limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Encryption key:off
Power Management:off
Link Quality=70/70 Signal level=-31 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
but I am not able to get something out:
ping 192.168.0.1
connect: Network is unreachable
lsmod|grep ath says:
ath5k 129412 0
ath 21370 1 ath5k
mac80211 183093 1 ath5k
cfg80211 132703 3 ath5k,ath,mac80211
If I comile an older version of the original madwifi driver for an 2.6
kernel everything will work fine. Newer versions give the same
behaviour like ath5k.
I have already tried rmmod and modprobe with the ath5k driver without success.
Other data of my system:
uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 3.1.0-1-amd64 #1 SMP Sun Dec 11 20:36:41
UTC 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux
wireless-tools 30~pre9-8
rfkill list wlan
0: acer-wireless: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
2: phy1: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
Do you have any ideas to get the card working again?
Best regards
Kay
