Apologise for the poor formatting: Updated here
I have just installed ver 0.9.1, and am trying to set the card to 802.11g
mode.
I have done the following:
{{{
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# modprobe ath_pci autocreate=ap
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# iwconfig ath0 rate 54M
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# iwconfig ath0 essid NingNing
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# iwconfig ath0 key SECRET
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# iwconfig ath0
ath0 IEEE 802.11b ESSID:"NingNing" Nickname:"boojum.picton.nom.za"
Mode:Master Channel:0 Access Point: 00:00:00:00:00:00
Bit Rate=54Mb/s Tx-Power:0 dBm Sensitivity=0/3
Retry:off RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Encryption key:BEEF-15DE-AD Security mode:restricted
Power Management:off
Link Quality:0/94 Signal level:-95 dBm Noise level:-95 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
}}}
When I try set the mode, I get the following:
{{{
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# iwpriv ath0 mode 3
Jun 27 17:01:39 boojum kernel: ath0 (WE) : Buffer for request SIOCGIWPRIV
too small (128<144)
ath0 no private ioctls.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# iwpriv ath0 mode 11g

ath0 no private ioctls.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# iwpriv ath0
Jun 27 17:02:22 boojum kernel: ath0 (WE) : Buffer for request SIOCGIWPRIV

}}}
Is this known, and are there any fixes for this?
