#2107: Packet flow stops on monitor mode, when fixed rate
-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
Reporter: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Type: defect
Status: new | Priority: minor
Component: madwifi: driver | Version: v0.9.4
Keywords: monitor rate | Patch_attached: 0
Pending: 0 |
-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
When i run my card in monitor mode, and set fixed rate, packet flow stops
and won't run again, or even my system hangs (depends on rate). Tested
with airodump and simple tcpdump. I'm using iwconfig to configure
devices.[[BR]]
{{{
wlanconfig mon1 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode monitor[[BR]]
iwconfig mon1 rate 1M[[BR]]
iwconfig mon1 rate 54M
}}}
[[BR]]
First iwconfig command cause flow-stop problem, second hangs my system. I
did't try another rates.
When i set 1M rate, no messages occurs.[[BR]]
