I have this problem. Mine is ipw3945, driver version 1.1.0m, On Kubuntu Feisty kernel v2.6.17-11 (because 2.6.20 breaks USB on my laptop). Mine works just fine if and only if, seemingly, I boot with "Disable Wireless" set in knetworkmanager, then turn wireless on, then try to "Connect to Other Network." If my network becomes unassociated, I must do this trick again to repair it. A simple reboot with wireless left enabled will not fix the problem. My SSID is hidden, and my auth type is WPA1/LEAP. >> 1)is that one of the devices that is supposed to be effected (I am not >> familiar with iwl4965)? > I've only had the problem with the new Intel n-draft 4965 device I think that there may be problems in some versions.

Have not tried this, but both when I use wpa_supplicant and NM, I always used ap_scan=2, and I'm assuming this is because it is a hidden SSID. I at one point had failing and succeeding wpa_supplicant messages, but the gist of it is that it seems to be failing at the association phase, and it would appear as if the BSSID that it thinks it's dealing with is all zeros. > By me and yes - but it's a hack in the current state of affairs. >> 3)if simply changing the AP_SCAN mode to 1 will work, then how would >> one do this, and still use NetworkManager ... is it as simple as >> creating a wpa_supplicant.conf file and specifying that value? > Nope - You'd have to apply my patch and rebuild the application as > things are now. - -- ---- _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ |Y#| | | |\/| | \ |\ | | |Ryan Novosielski - Systems Programmer II |$&| |__| | | |__/ | \| _| |[EMAIL PROTECTED] - 973/972.0922 (2-0922) \__/ Univ. of Med. and Dent.|IST/AST - NJMS Medical Science Bldg - C630 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGwzUMmb+gadEcsb4RAjU9AKDCEY7JaF2OFhC590H7wpLQg+6rfgCfeZ/0 VrNtAxPZrxEM9Hbylym6coY= =jdf8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
