I finally got around to looking at the kismet wireless logs from the last installfest at That Technical Bookstore that Gus recorded while I tried to connect. It seems to be a very obscure incompatibility: The wireless access point seems to fuss about the ordering of the available frequencies, and the latest driver sends the frequencies out of order: intel3945 to cisco: supported rates: 6 9 12 18 24 36 48 54 extended supported rates: 1 2 5.5 11 cisco to intel3945: denied due to requesting station not supporting all of the datarates in the BSSBasicServiceSet Parameter (0x0012) supported rates: 1(B) 2(B) 5.5(B) 11(B) extended supported rates: 6(B) 9 12(B) 18 24(B) 36 48 54 => connection unsuccessful intelGus to cisco: supported rates: 1(B) 2(B) 5.5(B) 11(B) 6(B) 9 12(B) 18 extended supported rates: 24(B) 36 48 54 cisco to intelGus: supported rates: 1(B) 2(B) 5.5(B) 11(B) extended supported rates: 6(B) 9 12(B) 18 24(B) 36 48 54 => connection succeeds Submitted as bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/242727 Christoph -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
