Reloading the module should not be necessary. Especially nohwcrypt=1 since you're not (?) running a secure mesh. > iw dev wlan0 interface add mesh0 type mp > iw dev mesh0 set channel 6 > ifconfig mesh0 192.168.2.1/24 > iw dev mesh0 mesh join mymesh > > router 2 > rmmod ath9k > insmod /lib/modules/2.6.39.4/ath9k.ko nohwcrypt=1 > iw dev wlan0 interface add mesh0 type mp > iw dev mesh0 set channel 6 > ifconfig mesh0 192.168.2.2/24 > iw dev mesh0 mesh join mymesh > > When I run: > iw dev mesh0 station dump > > I can see this result: > Station d8:5d:4c:d4:fd:7c (on mesh0) > inactive time: 920 ms > rx bytes: 25320 > rx packets: 634 > tx bytes: 223 > tx packets: 3 > tx retries: 0 > tx failed: 0 > signal: -52 dBm > signal avg: -51 [-66, -53, -60] dBm > tx bitrate: 1.0 MBit/s > rx bitrate: 1.0 MBit/s > mesh llid: 65475 > mesh plid: 36832 > mesh plink: ESTAB > > It seems that routers are establishing connection on layer 2, but when I try > to ping they do not respond Can you provide the output of 'iw mesh0 mpath dump'?

Compat-wireless is created from wireless-testing HEAD, so there are no guarantees about the stability or functionality of this kernel. You can fetch the latest release as a compat-wireless build here; http://o11s.org/files/compat-wireless-o11s-0.5.tar.bz2 > Have anyone had similar problem with ath9k + 802.11s in backfire from trunk > version? > Hope we can get to the bottom of this, Thomas _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://open80211s.com/mailman/listinfo/devel
