Re: Reproducible system hang in 4.9 (ral in hostap)

Update: I tried a brand new Linksys WMP600N (same chipset) and got the same error. So I've now ruled out the card being an issue. If there is anything else I should try please let me know, but as of now, I'm all out of ideas. Also, my offer to send one of these cards to the appropriate develop

Re: Reproducible system hang in 4.9 (ral in hostap)

Update2: It turns out that the problem I had back in 4.6 has not gone away, but that it just takes much more traffic to cause it. ~5 minutes of FTP across the bridge while ral is in hostAP will cause the hang. On Mon, Jun 20, 2011 at 5:50 PM, Max Hayden Chiz max.c...@gmail.com wrote: Update: B

Reproducible system hang in 4.9 (ral in hostap)

I have a Soekris net 5501 and a ral RT2860/2850 PCI card (dmesg below). B While trying to use the system for an access point, I discovered a way to consistently cause the system to hang. B (Note: This is *different* from a similar, now fixed, system hang that I reported circa 4.6-beta). To cause

Soekris Net 5501 RT2860/2850 hangs in 4.6-beta

I've been trying to use a Soekris Net5501 with a ral PCI card for a wireless access point. I'm running the most recent snapshot but I'm still getting the weird hangs that people were reporting on misc@ back in 4.4. Doing heavy traffic through the Soekris (e.g. ftp a large file) will consistently

Any Hardware Advice for Building an 802.11a AP?

I'm planning on building an OpenBSD wireless access point. I am primarily interested in having 802.11a as there are already close to 30 2.4GHz APs in the vicinity. I want something small, quiet, and low-power. There aren't many people using my network, but I would like something that can handle

Re: Any Hardware Advice for Building an 802.11a AP?

Several people have privately suggested that I consider an ath-based card instead of the ral b/c of the ongoing problems. Does anyone disagree? Does anyone know of a PCI-based ath card? Or am I going to have to get a mini-PCI card and a U.FL to coax connector to connect an external antenna? On

dmesg for Samsung N110 with 4.5-current

Brian, After your post (and several others), I tried BitTorrent out on my network (sparc64 router + DOCSIS 2.0 cable connection; see http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-miscm=120019379210857w=2) After some experimentation, I was able to determine that running BitTorrent with a large number of

Because several people have asked, my Internet connection is a business class cable connection with guaranteed 512Kbps up and 7Mbps down. I do get those speeds and can sustain them essentially indefinitely. On Jan 12, 2008 9:01 PM, Max Hayden Chiz [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I noticed

Why do clients running BitTorrent make my router's latency go through the roof?

I noticed that running BitTorrent was making my network go very slow and have been trying to fix it. After spending most of the day playing around with it I have concluded that the problem is caused by having too many simultaneous BitTorrent connections. As you increase the number of

I have a Sun Blade 100 with OpenBSD 4.2-current (Dec 18). I'm trying to configure it as a router/access point for my home network. The hardware is as shipped from Sun except that I have added an extra network card and a wireless card (re0 and ral0). I can send a dmesg if anyone thinks it would

dhcpd misleading documentation about the interaction between fixed-address statement and -L option

Unless I am doing something silly, dhcpd(8) may not be accurate regarding how the fixed-address statement and -L option inter-operate. Yesterday I discovered that when you assign a DHCP client an IP address using the fixed-address command, dhcpd does not create an entry in dhcpd.leases. As a
