We have mitigated the reinitialization problem, but it is still there and depends on certain combination of the ZD1211B firmware and the USB host adapter. Only replugging solves the problem.

Re: [zd1211-devs] Gigafast 1215 not working
I've dug a bit through the kernel sources. The timeout is set to one second (zd_usb.c) and it's being honoured like it should; the "time ifconfig eth5 up" command reports real0m1.004s So the reported error is the actual reason for the failure. The device is expected to reply to something within one second but in certain cases it doesn't. I don't know the driver and kernel internals enough to make more assumptions. However this timeout issue brings another strange behaviour I've observed sometimes at boot to my mind. It happens that when the kernel says: Waiting for /dev to be fully populated... the machine hangs for quite a long time (one minute or two), then it continues booting until it finally hangs forever (at least for more than 1 hour) on "Discovering new hardware". This happens only when the adapter is plugged, in fact the solution is to unplug it and reboot (hard reboot with power button). If I try to reboot without unplugging it I get the same problem repeated. After a reboot cycle without the adapter I can plug it in again and the boot process becomes normal, until the next time it decides to hang.

Maybe in your case is like reinventing the wheel, but in other cases it seems the wheel is still like a square. Moreover seems to me that my script failure isn't being caused by a bug in the script itself, because it fails on the very first action, "ifconfig eth5 up". I guess the same error would happen with your distro scripts and my hardware. And the same error happens also if I try to bring the interface up from the command line, just after a reboot: # ifconfig eth5 up SIOCSIFFLAGS: Connection timeout but this should be the first thing to do before doing anything else. I'm stuck. iwevent output is plain silence. I suspect that it's not dhclient or other Debian scripts bringing the interface down, but it's the driver failing to bring it up. This would explain why I have 3 computers working and 2 not (different hardware, probably different USB controllers, only the wireless adapter is the same).

Ok, I trust you and the logs, but I still can't figure out why it works on 3 other computers which use the same Debian 4.0, the same dhclient, the same vanilla kernel, the same configurations under /etc/network/ and the same Gigafast adapters. I'll have to accept that as a postulate. > Please try again without using dhclient or Debian's network config at > all. These 2 things have caused our users lots of problems. Ok then. Why don't we put on the website a minimal script to bring up an interface with zd1211rw? Seems to me that, if distro scripts cause a lot of problems, we would make a lot of users happy... In fact I'm the first who would be so happy to see such a script on the website, because I have a problem in writing the script myself: if I can't use dhclient, how do I configure my host in DHCP, even with a homebrew script?

So, please throw away all that Debian stuff and try this manually :) Daniel - This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

I've enabled softmac debug messages (and also 802.11 stack debug messages).
However I've stopped the trials with WEP, because I've noticed that with
WPA-PSK the adapter works ok, even with Debian dhclient, at least on 3 out
of 5 computers (in particular it doesn't work on 2 Pundit P1-PH1 but I hardly
believe that's the real reason). The kernel is always 2.6.21.1,
but I've noticed that the output of dhclient is different when the kernel
is compiled for 686 or for Pentium4 (686 version makes dhclient
print "send_packet: Network is down" messages that don't appear with P4
optimized version, but they both don't work nevertheless).
While dhclient is trying to get in touch with the AP, iwevent
says:

However all the above refers to problems with Debian dhclient
and I should know that Debian dhclient is not very wireless friendly
(altough it works for me on 3 other computers, same Debian, same adapters,
same kernel...). So let's focus on problems with static IP.
I've edited my /etc/network/interfaces and now it contains only the following:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth5
iface eth5 inet static
address 192.168.1.22
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.1
wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
My /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf has:
network={
ssid="videokernel"
scan_ssid=0
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
psk="mypsk"
}
After a reboot, "iwconfig eth5" says:
Warning: Driver for device eth5 has been compiled with version 22
of Wireless Extension, while this program supports up to version 20.
Some things may be broken...
eth5 IEEE 802.11b/g ESSID:off/any Nickname:"zd1211"
Mode:Managed Access Point: Invalid
Encryption key:off
Link Quality:0 Signal level:0 Noise level:0
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
(please note that the warning was there also when using dhcp and
it's there also on computers where the adapters do work).
Then I started iwevent and restarted networking, here is the output
of iwevent:
Waiting for Wireless Events from interfaces...
Warning: Driver for device eth5 has been compiled with version 22
of Wireless Extension, while this program supports up to version 20.
Some things may be broken...
16:05:11.988767 eth5 Set Mode:Managed
And the "netwoking start" script said:
* /etc/network/options is deprecated (see README.Debian of netbase).
Setting up IP spoofing protection...done (rp_filter).
Configuring network interfaces...SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot send after transport
endpoint shutdown

SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot send after transport endpoint shutdown

done.
So I guess that kern.log has nothing useful, however I report it here:

Here is what it says when I plug the adapter: There are no errors in your logs, but association did not complete. You should now enable softmac debug messages, and also run "iwevent" in another console while attempting to connect.
