Taking another look in my dmesg, I found this line udev: renamed network interface wlan0 to ath0 So something similar is obviously going on her on my Fedora system. I'll remove these settings and try again. (But could really a name change explain my problems? It did change to ath0, and ath0 is what all my configurations points to. So it looks as if it would be consistent. I'll try anyway, but it looks a bit far-fetched, doesn't it?) _______________________________________________ ath5k-users mailing list ath5k-users@lists.ath5k.org https://lists.ath5k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath5k-users
