Hi all,

I'm having trouble getting my Cisco Aironet PCM352 card working on my
compaq presario 2100 (AMD).  In particular, I get the message:

an0: failed to enable MAC

during boot of the install, and when I try to use dhcp.  I received
this message with 3.8-release.  I decided not to configure the network
with an0 during the install, and do it afterwards since there was
clearly something wrong.  Following the install, the system booted
without that message.  ancontrol -S returns:

MAC address:            [ 00:0b:5f:0e:64:2c ]
Operating mode:         [ configured MAC ON RX ON synced associated ]
Error code:             [ 00 ]

Total AP load:          [ 0 ]
Our generated load:     [ 0 ]
Accumulated ARL:        [ 0 ]

Ok cool, it looks like it associated with my AP (snikeris).  Some
possibly related weirdness:

# ancontrol -N
SSID 1:                         [   ]
SSID 2:                         [   ]
SSID 3:                         [   ]
# ancontrol -n snikeris
# ancontrol -N
SSID 1:                         [   ]
SSID 2:                         [   ]
SSID 3:                         [   ]

If I understand ancontrol(8) correctly this should read:

# ancontrol -N
SSID 1:                         [ snikeris ]
SSID 2:                         [   ]
SSID 3:                         [   ]



Then I created /etc/hostname.an0 that just contained "dhcp" as
instructed in dhcp(8) and rebooted.  I can successfully connect to my
linksys router with dhcp with ethernet, so I assume I should be able
to with this wireless card (I can connect with wireless and dhcp in
windows xp) Then I after the normal stuff I get:

starting network
an0: failed to enable MAC
DHCPDISCOVER on an0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 2
send_packet: Network is down
.
.
.
No DHCPOFFERS received

Then an ancontrol -n snikeris returns:

an0: failed to enable MAC

So it seems like dhcp somehow messed up the card.

Searching the archives turned up similar problems, but no solutions. 
I suspected it might be an issue with the firmware, so I upgraded it
to the latest firmware (5.60.21), but the problem persists.  It is
interesting to note that ancontrol -I returns:

OUI:                    [ 00:40:96 ]
Product number:         [ 10 ]
Manufacturer name:      [ Cisco Systems                   ]

RX Diversity:           [ antenna 1 and 2 ]
TX Diversity:           [ antenna 1 and 2 ]
Supported power levels: [ 1 5 20 30 50 100 0 0 ]
Hardware revision:      [ 00:30 ]
Software revision:      [ 05:60 ]
Software subrevision:   [ 00:15 ]
Interface revision:     [ 00:00 ]
Bootblock revision:     [ 01:50 ]

Of particular interest are the last few lines.  It says the Software
revision is 05:60 and the software subrevision is 00:15.  I would
assume this would correspond with firmware version 5.60.15.  This is
not the firmware that I installed (5.60.21).  I'm pretty sure that the
firmware installed correctly since the ACU utility in windows reports
that the firmware is indeed 5.60.21

Anyone have any ideas what the issue could be?  If anyone has this
card working on 3.8, could you please let me know what firmware
version you are using?  If an older firmware is what is needed, thats
fine.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions,
Joe Snikeris
