can anyone please give me some knowledge on this:
# dmesg
iwi0: XXX too many rates (count=13, last=108)
<snip>
I've had nothing but problems with my iwi card:
iwi0 at pci2 dev 3 function 0 "Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG" rev 0x05: irq 11, addr
ess 00:0e:35:53:ed:56
cardslot0 at cbb0 slot 0 flags 0
cardbus0 at cardslot0: bus 3 device 0 cacheline 0x8, lattimer 0x20
pcmcia0 at cardslot0
When I've got the card enabled, and are around ap's that have
auth/encryption, the card freaks out. dmesg is slowly filled with
authentication and firmware errors.
I ended simply picking up an orinoco pcmcia card for cheap.. uses the
madwifi driver in linux, wi in BSD..works wonderfully.
Cheers,
Jason
