the problem of changing mode in past kernels is becouse madwifi drivers changed the way to configure the device.
In past vesions you do: iwconfig ath0 mode xxxxx but now you have to configure this way (http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/AdHocInterface): wlanconfig ath0 destroy wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode adhoc This worked for me, but the signal quality slugish my network. The init.d scripts aren't doing they job right. The drivers chnged the way to configure it and init.d script are the same of old version. The bad signal problem is a driver ensue. -- Cannot set modes other than 'Managed' on Atheros based wifi card https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/62106 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
