Hello,
I've been trying to get my D-Link DWL-520 802.11b card to broadcast as a
host AP the last few weeks with little success. I'm using OpenBSD 3.6
and Sun UltraSPARC 5. I was hoping someone here would be able to point
me in the right direction. I don't think the card is being correctly
"detected" by OpenBSD.
I get this with dmesg:
# dmesg |grep wi0
wi0 at pci2 dev 3 function 0 "Intersil PRISM2.5" rev 0x01: ivec 18wi0:
init failed
As far as I can tell it's a Prism2.5 chipset card which is supported by
the hardware compatibility list. It also seems to minimize the chance
that it's a different chipset since I know some cards changed chipsets
without changing the model number.
Someone suggested I change the OBP local-mac-addresses variable to true,
which I did, but that didn't seem to improve the problem or change the
error message.
Any help at all would be much appreciated.
Thank you.
I've also included my full dmesg output just in case someone might find
it useful:
