Restarting the ipw3945d service yield= s the same results. Here's what happens when I restart the ipw3945 service: # /etc/init.d/ipw3945d restart * Stopping eth1 * Bringing down eth1 * Stopping dhcpcd on eth1 ... =20 [ ok ] * Shutting down eth1 ... =20 [ ok ] * Stopping wpa_cli on eth1 ... =20 [ ok ] * Stopping wpa_supplicant on eth1 ... =20 [ ok ] * Stopping ipw3945d ... =20 [ ok ] * Starting ipw3945d ... =20 [ ok ] * Starting eth1 * Starting wpa_supplicant on eth1 ... ioctl[SIOCSIWMODE]: Resource temporarily unavailable Could not configure driver to use managed mode ioctl[SIOCGIWRANGE]: Resource temporarily unavailable ioctl[SIOCSIWAUTH]: Resource temporarily unavailable WEXT auth param 7 value 0x1 - ioctl[SIOCSIWENCODEEXT]: Resource temporarily unavailable ioctl[SIOCSIWENCODEEXT]: Resource temporarily unavailable ioctl[SIOCSIWENCODEEXT]: Resource temporarily unavailable ioctl[SIOCSIWENCODEEXT]: Resource temporarily unavailable ioctl[SIOCSIWAUTH]: Resource temporarily unavailable WEXT auth param 4 value 0x0 - ioctl[SIOCSIWAUTH]: Resource temporarily unavailable = =20 [ ok ]th param 5 value 0x1 - * Starting wpa_cli on eth1 ... =20 [ ok ] * Backgrounding ... Which is basically the same problem as what Jos=C3=A9 posted about, excep= t he is restarting net.eth1. Anyone know of a solution to fix this?
