Hi, I'm using a 3Com AirConnect (3CRWE777A) in hostap mode on a -STABLEish kernel, and I've observed an oddity which might explain some other reports. I'm setting 'wepmode on', but ifconfig subsequently reports 'wepmode MIXED' although wicontrol reports it as 'On'. I can't connect with a non-WEP client, so I believe the card really is in WEP-only mode and ifconfig is reporting it wrongly.
All seems to work except that client connexions drop after an indeterminate period (perhaps related to signal quality) and won't reconnect unless I ifconfig down then up the hostap interface. I'm going to see whether upgrading to the latest firmware effects any improvement. [Test client is a 3CRSHPW on Win2k running latest firmware.] -- Bob Bishop +44 (0)118 977 4017 [EMAIL PROTECTED] fax +44 (0)118 989 4254 To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
