Greetings- After setting up a home wireless network, I have a couple of residual problems/ questions.
1.) I get lots of the following message in syslog: Jan 8 11:46:38 simmel kernel: eth1: Unknown Rx error (0x3). Frame dropped. Jan 8 11:46:54 simmel last message repeated 2 times Jan 8 11:48:02 simmel last message repeated 2 times Jan 8 11:49:48 simmel kernel: eth1: Unknown Rx error (0x3). Frame dropped. (END) 2.) I get duplicate packets when pinging from one wireless host to another: simmel:/var/log# ping jacobi-wlan PING jacobi-wlan.perrins (192.168.0.7): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 192.168.0.7: icmp_seq=0 ttl=128 time=15.5 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.7: icmp_seq=0 ttl=128 time=15.6 ms (DUP!) 64 bytes from 192.168.0.7: icmp_seq=1 ttl=128 time=0.7 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.7: icmp_seq=1 ttl=128 time=1.0 ms (DUP!) 64 bytes from 192.168.0.7: icmp_seq=2 ttl=128 time=0.7 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.7: icmp_seq=2 ttl=128 time=0.9 ms (DUP!) 64 bytes from 192.168.0.7: icmp_seq=3 ttl=128 time=0.7 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.7: icmp_seq=3 ttl=128 time=0.9 ms (DUP!) 64 bytes from 192.168.0.7: icmp_seq=4 ttl=128 time=0.7 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.0.7: icmp_seq=4 ttl=128 time=0.9 ms (DUP!) --- jacobi-wlan.perrins ping statistics --- 5 packets transmitted, 5 packets received, +5 duplicates, 0% packet loss round-trip min/avg/max = 0.7/3.7/15.6 ms Any idea what these might be? What should I post? Hardware is a Belkin WAP, Sony Vaio PCG-Z505HS with a Belkin wireless PCMCIA card. Debian 3.0r1 (woody), kernel 2.4.18 on the Vaio. The other wireless host is an HP desktop with a D-Link PCI wireless card, running Windows XP Pro. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew J Perrin - http://www.unc.edu/~aperrin Assistant Professor of Sociology, U of North Carolina, Chapel Hill [EMAIL PROTECTED] * andrew_perrin (at) unc.edu -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
