I have an i386 box that used to be running 4.3-stable and was recently upgraded to 4.4 using a CD and following the instructions. Everything seemed to be working fine including rum wireless in its primary location. However, a previously working configuration in an alternate location now results in the following log entries:
DHCPDISCOVER on rum0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 1 DHCPDISCOVER on rum0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 2 ... No DHCPOFFERS received. No working leases in persistent database - sleeping. The two configuration files are shown below. The only significant difference is in how the alternate location uses a non-zero key index. working hostname.rum0 (in primary location): dhcp nwid "HOME" nwkey "HomeWEPString" no-longer working hostname.rum0: dhcp nwid "WIFI" nwkey "2:,SomeKeyString,," The box is a P-III class running GENERIC kernel. I did not include a dmesg because currently it lacks connectivity (the very reason for the posting) and the above information was hand-typed. However, if it does become really important, I will find a way to transfer the dmesg and/or output of any other command as requested. All input greatly appreciated, -Jacob.
