Hi, on my Dell D800 with FreeBSD 5.3 RELEASE I've managed to build and load the ndis modules, and gotten as far as the ndis0 device showing up on ifconfig.
However, I can't seem to get a 'carrier tone', and the SSID doesn't stick. I actually have a DHCP server, so eventually I want to move the ifconfig-stuff to dhclient.conf but for now I just want to get the status to change for the device. Does anybody have a clue about what I'm missing or doing wrong here? > dmesg ndis0: <Dell TrueMobile 1400 Dual Band WLAN Mini-PCI Card> mem 0xfafec000-0xfafedfff irq 5 at device 3.0 on pci2 ndis0: NDIS API version: 5.1 ndis0: Ethernet address: 00:90:4b:62:47:92 ndis0: 11a rates: 6Mbps 9Mbps 12Mbps 18Mbps 36Mbps 48Mbps 54Mbps ndis0: 11b rates: 1Mbps 2Mbps 5.5Mbps 11Mbps ndis0: 11g rates: 6Mbps 9Mbps 12Mbps 18Mbps 36Mbps 48Mbps 54Mbps > ifconfig ndis0 inet <IP> netmask 255.255.0.0 <http://255.255.0.0> ssid <SSID> nwkey <KEY> channel 11 ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): File exists > ifconfig ndis0 ndis0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::290:4bff:fe62:4792%ndis0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5 ether 00:90:4b:62:47:92 media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect status: no carrier ssid "" channel 11 authmode OPEN powersavemode OFF powersavesleep 100 rtsthreshold 2312 protmode CTS wepmode MIXED weptxkey 1 wepkey 1:40-bit > sysctl -a | grep ndis hw.ndis_filepath: /compat/ndis dev.ndis.0.%desc: Dell TrueMobile 1400 Dual Band WLAN Mini-PCI Card dev.ndis.0.%driver: ndis dev.ndis.0.%location: slot=3 function=0 dev.ndis.0.%pnpinfo: vendor=0x14e4 device=0x4324 subvendor=0x1028 subdevice=0x0001 class=0x028000 dev.ndis.0.%parent: pci2 dev.ndis.0.RoamDelta: 1 dev.ndis.0.MPC: 1 dev.ndis.0.RadioState: 0 dev.ndis.0.PowerSaveMode: 2 dev.ndis.0.PLCPHeader: 0 dev.ndis.0.frag: 2346 dev.ndis.0.rts: 2347 dev.ndis.0.NetworkAddress: dev.ndis.0.antdiv: -1 dev.ndis.0.BTCoexist: 1 dev.ndis.0.FrameBursting: 0 dev.ndis.0.Afterburner: 0 dev.ndis.0.gpio0: -1 dev.ndis.0.gpio1: -1 dev.ndis.0.gpio2: -1 dev.ndis.0.gpio3: -1 dev.ndis.0.EnableLEAP: 1 dev.ndis.0.Interference_Mode: -1 dev.ndis.0.ccx_rm: 1 dev.ndis.0.ccx_rm_limit: 300 dev.ndis.0.Country: US dev.ndis.0.Channel: 11 dev.ndis.0.WME: 0 dev.ndis.0.WZCCoexist: 0 dev.ndis.0.abcap: 1 dev.ndis.0.RoamTrigger: -70 dev.ndis.0.11HNetworks: 0 dev.ndis.0.IBSSGMode: 0 dev.ndis.0.IBSSGProtection: 2 dev.ndis.0.LegacyMode: 0 dev.ndis.0.band: 0 dev.ndis.0.BandPref: 0 dev.ndis.0.AssocRoamPref: 0 dev.ndis.0.RateA: 0 dev.ndis.0.Rate: 0 dev.ndis.0.ApCompatMode: 0 dev.ndis.0.10280001: Dell TrueMobile 1400 Dual Band WLAN Mini-PCI Card dev.ndis.0.Environment: 1 dev.ndis.0.NdisVersion: 0x00050001 dev.ndis.0.BusType: 5 dev.ndis.0.InterruptNumber: 5 dev.ndis.0.ForcePIO: UNSET dev.ndis.0.NoRadio: UNSET dev.ndis.0.AdapterDesc: UNSET dev.ndis.0.DriverDesc: UNSET dev.ndis.0.Brand: UNSET dev.ndis.0.WPA: UNSET dev.ndis.0.IBSSLink: UNSET dev.ndis.0.PwrOut: UNSET dev.ndis.0.BadFramePreempt: UNSET dev.ndis.0.scan_channel_time: UNSET dev.ndis.0.scan_unassoc_time: UNSET dev.ndis.0.scan_home_time: UNSET dev.ndis.0.scan_passive_time: UNSET dev.ndis.0.scan_passes: UNSET dev.ndis.0.EnableAutoConnect: UNSET _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
