I've been trying to diagnose an issue with 2.6.30-rc4. At first thinking it was not the kernel, but the network manager (in my case I use wicd). with 2.6.29-rc8 the system starts up, connects no problem. but as soon as I load 2.6.30-rc4 I get limited connection to none. in dmesg I see:
[ 36.337419] wlan0: direct probe to AP 00:1e:2a:00:67:f0 try 1 [ 36.530106] wlan0: direct probe to AP 00:1e:2a:00:67:f0 try 2 [ 36.730100] wlan0: direct probe to AP 00:1e:2a:00:67:f0 try 3 [ 36.930101] wlan0: direct probe to AP 00:1e:2a:00:67:f0 timed out [ 44.421728] wlan0: direct probe to AP 00:1e:2a:00:67:f0 try 1 [ 44.620080] wlan0: direct probe to AP 00:1e:2a:00:67:f0 try 2 [ 44.820080] wlan0: direct probe to AP 00:1e:2a:00:67:f0 try 3 [ 45.020076] wlan0: direct probe to AP 00:1e:2a:00:67:f0 timed out
The type of encryption used is just a standard WEP key(no WPA).
has this been resolved already?
Also I'm noticing(but not that big of a deal) if I set in sysctl.conf:
net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_ignore=8 net.ipv4.conf.wlan0.arp_ignore=8 net.ipv4.conf.wmaster0.arp_ignore=8 net.ipv4.conf.lo.arp_ignore=8 net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_announce=2 net.ipv4.conf.wlan0.arp_announce=2 net.ipv4.conf.wmaster0.arp_announce=2 net.ipv4.conf.lo.arp_announce=2
watching a movie on hulu, about 15/20 minuets into enjoyment, hulu craps out(starts re-buffering) then re initializes after about 30 secs later. but if I comment those out(set back to default) hulu will run fine.
