If the link quality is shown as 0, you are not associated. Yes, it's misleading to the see AP if the association didn't complete. You can try setting the ESSID again. That should retry the association. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
