Thanks for your feedback. I'll pay more attention on this problem, although it looks not derive from IWK driver. Zhonghui

I went home and tried it on my WPA2/Tkip&Aes & had the same problem. The problem is somewhere in between dladm (because wifi associates fine) & getting an IP address. Bummed, Jonathan 2008/9/11 Fu, Zhonghui <zhonghui.fu at intel.com> Thanks for your analysis about this problem. It will be very helpful to others having the same issue.

Fixed it. Here's how: This reminded me of a bug Moinak Ghosh found in Belenix w/KDE - that zenity failing made nwam fail and then DHCP. I saw the zenity error in /var/adm/messages & the fact that my WLAN was listed but could not connect. He indicated the popup failure result was in http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/onnv/onnv-gate/usr/src/cmd/cmd-inet/lib/nwamd/util.c#253 The root cause turned out to be with zenity & nwam. I enabled debug for nwamd & saw that zenity could not pop up the 802.11 network selection window due to an xauth issue. I did xhost +, restarted nwam, the window popped up, I selected my WPA network, entered the key & got an IP address assigned. This made me go look at the NWAM list - where I saw the new NWAM + GUI. I installed the .10 package & everything is working perfectly.

Krusty Jonez ??: Any reason with the 4965 I can't get a DHCP address when connected to APs with any encryption? I can associate fine with either nwam or regular network/physical to WEP or WPA APs , but cannot get assigned any dhcp information. Configuring the ip info by hand gets me online. If static IP can make you online, it should not be iwk driver issue. It can associate and get DHCP info fine from open APs. I am using a 4965 in a Thinkpad T61 with 4gb ram. This has happened since at least Nevada b93. I am now on Nevada b96 bfu'ed to 9/01 current. Do you mean you have ever get Intel 4965 work OK with earlier Nevada build? Which one. You can try below commands: 1. #svcadm disable physical:default 2. #svcadm enable nwam (with a popup, you can choose your AP, input wep key, if still fail to get dhcp IP, then do next ) 3. #svcadm restart nwam (when fail again, please post the /var/adm/messages file and output of "ifconfig -a") - Michael ----Original Message----- From: Fu, Zhonghui <zhonghui.fu at intel.com> <mailto:zhonghui.fu at intel.com> Sent: Sunday, September 07, 2008 11:07 PM To: laptop-discuss at opensolaris.org Subject: [laptop-discuss] Mercurial gate of Intel 4965 WiFi driver is accessible to anonymous users now. All, At present, mercurial gate of Intel 4965 WiFi driver(iwkph1.5) is opened to anonymous users. For more information how to download source code and contribute code for this driver, please refer to http://www.opensolaris.org/os/project/sierra/. At ths same time, the package of this driver may be downloaded from this website as well. In this version(iwkph1.5), Calibration and IBSS(adhoc mode) features were added. Calibration provide a mechanism by which WiFi chipset may adjust it's TX power according current chipset temperatrue and make sure a good communication quality all the time. Furthermore, Calibration may adjust WiFi chipset's receiving sensitivity and make sure not receive overmuch noise and not lose useful wireless signal. Using IBSS mode, several wireless stations may setup a wireless network without central AP.
