Hi, I tried the bcm43xx-dscape driver with a patched 2.6.15 kernel on my iBook G4 12" and I cannot get it to work. Some relevant information... CPU information processor : 0 cpu : 7447A, altivec supported clock : 1333MHz revision: 0.5 (pvr 8003 0105) bogomips

Thanks. I will try waiting a few minutes after setting up the connection. Your delays when running route or netstat could be a DNS lookup failure. Try "netstat -rn" which will not try to translate IP addresses to names. Ruben wrote: > At Tue, 10 Jan 2006 21:51:36 +1100, Aaron wrote: > >>Still

The extra line you have is the route for all traffic NOT on the local network and so it should not change ping-ing the router on the same network. Just to be sure I have added a default route (to my AP/router) the same as your settings. Alas, this does not seem to have made any difference. At
