Hi,
I tried to connect to an access point without authentification and one
with WPA2/PSK(AES) using the iwn driver shipped with OpenBSD running
OpenBSD 4.8 amd64 on my Lenovo Thinkpad X300 (Intel Corporation
PRO/Wireless 4965). Intel Firmwire version 5.5 was used.
What I have done:
1.) 'ifconfig iwn0 scan' to choose the AP
2.) 'ifconfig iwn0 nwid foo chan 11' to select AP
3.) now I invoke 'ifconfig iwn0' several times only to see the bssid is
identified and a number with extension 'dB' is shown
this number keeps changing, sometimes even the bssid disappears but on
next invocation bssid is found again and the number is being switched
all the time again
A connection to the AP cannot be established. Since I thought this would
be a bug in 4.8 amd64, I booted an OpenBSD 4.7 install cd, setup the
firmwire, scanned and tested to connect to the AP without success.
So I thought maybe only amd64 is broken and tested 4.8 i386 but I
watched the same things happen again :(
With FreeBSD or Linux based systems I can access the AP (even on the
machine).
Is there anything I should attach to provide further assistence?
A bsd developer posted his X300 dmesg so I guess I dont have to post
mine: http://www.bsdfrog.org/dmesg/x300
