Hello,

 
I just compiled kernel 2.6.24-mm1. Can't get ath5k to work properly.

Worked fine under kernel 2.6.24 with the latest madwifi-snapshot.

Using the following card:

 -==Device Information==-
MAC Version:  5212  (0x50)
MAC Revision: 5213A (0x59)
PHY Revision: 5110  (0x00)
PHY Revision: 5110  (0x00)
 -==EEPROM Information==-
EEPROM Version:     4.8

 -==== Capabilities ====-

|  32KHz   Crystal: yes  |
 ========================
GPIO registers: CR 00000000 DO 00000000 DI 00000007

dmesg output:
ath5k_pci 0000:02:02.0: registered as 'phy0'
phy0: Selected rate control algorithm 'pid'
ath5k phy0: Atheros AR5213A chip found (MAC: 0x59, PHY: 0x43)
ath5k phy0: RF2112A 2GHz radio found (0x46)
iTCO_wdt: Intel TCO WatchDog Timer Driver v1.10 (17-Aug-2007)
wlan0 renamed to ath0
udev: renamed network interface wlan0 to ath0


I can associate to networks:

ath0      IEEE 802.11g  ESSID:"92" 
          Mode:Managed  Frequency:2.447 GHz  Access Point: 
00:1B:2F:7A:AB:A6  
          Bit Rate=54 Mb/s   Tx-Power=27 dBm  
          Retry min limit:7   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr=2352 B  
          Encryption key:off
          Link Quality=106/100  Signal level=-25 dBm  Noise level=-93 dBm
          Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
          Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0

dmesg output:
ath0: Initial auth_alg=0
ath0: authenticate with AP 00:1b:2f:7a:ab:a6
ath0: RX authentication from 00:1b:2f:7a:ab:a6 (alg=0 transaction=2 
status=0)
ath0: authenticated
ath0: associate with AP 00:1b:2f:7a:ab:a6
ath0: RX AssocResp from 00:1b:2f:7a:ab:a6 (capab=0x411 status=0 aid=1)
ath0: associated
ath0: CTS protection enabled (BSSID=00:1b:2f:7a:ab:a6)
ath0: switched to long barker preamble (BSSID=00:1b:2f:7a:ab:a6)



But that's basically what i can do. I can't ping anything, don't get any 
response to DHCP-requests/discovers. Can't reach the default Gateway of 
the Netgear wireless-router (essid 92). The same setup works great with 
kernel 2.6.24 and the latest madwifi-snapshot.

I don't see any errors in dmesg, 'ping' doesn't output any errors, there 
are just no replies. If i scan the whole network range with nmap, nmap 
finishes very quick and states all hosts (except the local) as down.  I 
ran a  wireshark session and saw some Samba-broadcasts, but can't ping 
or scan the source IP.

Any suggestions?




Greetings,
M. Kramer
