NetBSD JackDEmpsey 2.0 NetBSD 2.0 (JackDEmpsey) #17: Wed DEc 22 09:48:10 UTC 2004 root@JackDEmpsey:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/JackDEmpsey i386
>Description:
I upgraded to NetBSD 2.0 and wireless networking stopped working.
I can get wired networking, but not wireless.
It used to work, with 1.6.2, after the upgrade I get the linklight on on the wireless card, routing shows the correct route, but any time I try to ping I get sendto: host down.
The host is NOT down as I can access it via other laptops ( Linux / Mac / PDA )
route show:
default 192.168.0.15 UG
loopback 127.0.0.1 UGR
localhost 127.0.0.1 UH
192.168.0.0/24 link#4 U
router.org link#4 UH
ifconfig wi0
shows its up, show ssid is correct, shows nwkey is correct, show inet address correct, can ping 192.168.0.7 ( local machine )
I've noticed that if I disable ipv6 in the kernel that I get other messages, but wireless still does not work.
What changed that is screwing me up cause I haven't chagned any thing in my config. Do I need to or is this a known problem.
WEP on wireless???
