Actually, the driver for the card creates two network interfaces wlan0 and
wmaster0. From the command line I use wlan0 to connect to networks, and
wmaster0 seems kinda weird - I'd suppose it's an interface for setting up APs,
but iwconfig doesn't even show mode for the interface (wlan0 is managed).
This is what I get:
wmaster0 IEEE 802.11g Frequency:2.412 GHz
RTS thr:off Fragment thr=2346 B
wlan0 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:""
Mode:Managed Frequency:2.412 GHz Access Point: Not-Associated
RTS thr:off Fragment thr=2346 B
Encryption key:off
So I guess wmaster0 is insignificant, but just so you know...
And the other weird thing is there is no entry for my wlan0 card in the
/proc/net/wireless file.
The ath0 interface listed in the file is a different card (atheros) which works
well with nm.
Ok enough talking :-)
Here goes wlan0.log...
