A bit later than anticipated, but I found a (one of my) rum(4) and
tried it with a FON WPA access point. So far, I've transferred 5+GB of
data through this NIC without any issues whatsoever, all using WPA.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] $ netstat -nb -I rum0
Name Mtu Network Address Ibytes Obytes
rum0 150d <Link> 00:80:5a:37:c2:f4 5648770470 170570816
I've seen no association errors or anything.
Strange. Is your AP also Atheros-based? So far, i had troubles with two
APs, both Atheros-based.
There's only this :
ehci_idone: ex=0xffff800000221600 is done!

Yes, i have seen that too, looks more like an informational message.
Anyway, thank you for your effort! :-)
I will try running the WLAN w/o WPA and encrypt traffic with IPSec or
OpenVPN.
Cheers,
