Is there any known problem with BlackBerry phones? I've set up hotspot (ath5k + hostapd). Any device can connect to it and use it (SE P1i, few laptops, iPhone) except BlackBerry (Curve 8520) phone. It connects to Wifi but i cannot access any website (it displays can't find server message). I tried to debug packets sent on wifi interface - it looks like DNS packets don't reach hotspot at all (well they do but thats 1 of 100). I can see ARP 'who has' and ARP 'is at' packets (sniffing with scapy) but nothing else. Maybe it's a matter of some timeout? I tried also to ping my hotspot from BB - when i ping it as 'WiFi gateway' then one request reaches hotspot and returns (in about 1600ms). When i try to ping hotspot with it's IP no request reaches back BB (however they return from hotspot mmediately) May 10 15:00:13 localhost kernel: [ 7909.164681] IN=wlan0 OUT= MAC=00:0e:8e:25:a8:fc:30:69:4b:04:6a:7e:08:00 SRC=192.168.100.146 DST=192.168.100.1 LEN=60 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=128 ID=1236 DF PROTO=ICMP TYPE=8 CODE=0 ID=2910 SEQ=0 May 10 15:00:13 localhost kernel: [ 7909.165014] xxxOUTxxxIN= OUT=wlan0 SRC=192.168.100.1 DST=192.168.100.146 LEN=60 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=64 ID=38548 PROTO=ICMP TYPE=0 CODE=0 ID=2910 SEQ=0
Maybe it's an issue with power management (http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.os.freebsd.current/110707)? A timeout? I have no idea where to look further for a solution. I'm using ath5k from kernel 2.6.38 hostapd 0.7.3 (driver nl80211) dnsmasq 2.45 _______________________________________________ ath5k-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ath5k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath5k-devel
