Hi Norm,

I would say, get rid of the bridge first. Most problem usually comes with bridge + hostap + wpa. This normally exists with new wireless drivers.

Yes, you can use 2.6.34 from debian experimental, and that should no harm but only disk space.

Thanks Punky, I'm not 100% sure what you mean - my system IS doing NAT
for its various wireless clients, the actual Internet connection via a
3G USB device. That's the whole purpose of the project.

Are you saying that bridging wlan0 with (wired) eth0 in order to serve
both worlds may be a problem? Or are you saying that the wireless
drivers simply aren't reliable enough to use as an AP?

In the latter case, do you think it would be a good idea to upgrade to
kernel 2.6.34 from debian/experimental? Do you know if there other
things in Voyage that will break with 2.6.34?

And/or should I try the latest drivers from wireless.kernel.org?

Appreciate your help!

Norm

Hi Norm,

I myself would suggest to NAT'd wireless client instead of bridged access
point.

I see ath9k is not at production quality at 2.6.30.
