Hm, just got this: ieee80211: eth1: Unknown management packet: 112 and then the connection was broken:-( What could that be? Using openvpn over it if it matters...

It doesn't scan automatically, so, I cannot associate. Is it related to this comment: /* We are not setting the status, because ieee->state is not updated * at all and this driver doesn't track authentication state. */ Adding up iwlist eth1 scanning to interfaces doesn't help for some reason - only calling it manually helps. Ok, I can work around it with a dreadful hack. You have to do: ifconfig eth1 up iwlist scan iwconfig eth1 essid ... to trick ifup to do all that I've done: iface eth1 inet static address 1.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 broadcast 1.255.255.255 up iwlist eth1 scanning up iwconfig eth1 essid "xxx" up dhclient eth1 instead of just doing iface wlan0 inet dhcp up iwconfig wlan0 essid "xxx" ugly... Can we improve it? Besides, it is very nice to see all "visible" APs as "Quality=100/100 Signal level=100/100", but it is hard to believe it:-) Thanks Guennadi --- Guennadi Liakhovetski --- All the advantages of Linux Managed Hosting--Without the Cost and Risk!

I knew it would take me days / weeks to get anything remotely useful, whereas for you it was a matter of, probably, a few hours:-) I started yesterday, so, I just learned what was anyway interesting to learn, but now it is good to directly jump to a ready solution:-) Yes, will test some time this / next week and report back.
