Scenario 2: Atheros AR5418 168c:0024 Wifi-N card. modinfo ath9k vermagic: 2.6.27-7-generic SMP mod_unload modversions 586 srcversion: 56C428B2A623B579492E35B
kernel 2.6.27-7-generic linux-backports-modules 2.6.27.7.10 NetworkManager tries to connect, but usually does not associate [dmesg]: [14849.660084] wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:1f:3f:13:d2:ec [14849.860087] wlan0: authentication with AP 00:1f:3f:13:d2:ec timed out The NetworkManager logs do not reveal anything more than that. When it does associate, it fetches an IP address but no data gets transmitted. Thus, it might even be a mac80211 problem. Thanks! -- [ath9k] AR5418 frequently fails to connect to WEP/WPA network https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/278190 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mactel Support, which is the registrant for Mactel Support. Status in The Linux Kernel: New Status in Mactel Support: New Status in “linux” source package in Ubuntu: New Status in “network-manager” source package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: The wireless network can be seen, and occasionally connects after a cold boot. Most of the time network-manager complains that the WEP/WPA key is not correct, pops up a dialogue repeatedly. It may or may not obtain a DHCP lease. However, no data gets transmitted. Scenario 1: (See comment by Dennis Heinson for another scenario) Beta release updated 4/10/08 on a gen 2 MacBook Pro (atheros wifi) connecting to a BT home hub with WEP 64 bit encryption (configuration as shipped). No previous problems with Kubuntu 7.10 and the same hardware using self-compiled drivers.
