Paul,
when you had success with rum(4), did you use wpa? I am having trouble
getting a Hercules HWGUSB2-54 under OpenBSD 4.4 to work with my FritzBox
7220 using wpa(tkip). At start, the association succeeds, but after some 15
minutes it disassociates and than fails to reassociate until i either
reboot the AP or the OpenBSD box. The fritzbox reports authentication
errors. If this works for you, then i would suspect that the fritzbox is to
blame.
No, I did not use rum(4) with wpa. I can try this sometime later this
week, will let you know the results.
I have the same problem with ral(4) using a Ralink RT2561 (see old 4.3
dmesg lines below)
ral0 at pci2 dev 9 function 0 "Ralink RT2561" rev 0x00: irq 7, address
00:13:d3:83:1a:d2
ral0: MAC/BBP RT2561C, RF RT2527
This one is also unreliable under WinXP, disassociates often and has
trouble associating again, with the AP reporting authorization errors.
But anyway, under Windows it eventually succeeds whereas with obsd it
does not.
Cheers,
Heinrich
