Hy again, Here is the new /etc/conf.d/net: pre-up(){ ifconfig wlan0 up } modules_wlan0=( "dhcp" "iwconfig" "wpa_supplicant") essid_wlan0="any" mode_wlan0="managed" preferred_aps_wlan0="'baladei-wifi' 'dlink'" assciate_order_wlan0="forcepreferedonly" wpa_supplicant_wlan0="-Dwext -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf" config_wlan0=("dhcp") When I issue /etc/init.d/net.wlan0 restart it still connects to dlink and from the log file it seems that it ignores baladei-wifi: Mar 19 14:50:17 dani-laptop dhcpcd[8535]: wlan0: received SIGTERM, stopping Mar 19 14:50:17 dani-laptop dhcpcd[8535]: wlan0: removing default route via 192.168.0.1 metric 2000 Mar 19 14:50:17 dani-laptop dhcpcd[8535]: wlan0: deleting IP address 192.168.0.101/24 Mar 19 14:50:17 dani-laptop dhcpcd[8535]: wlan0: exiting Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:0c:00.0 disabled Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:0c:00.0[A] -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17 Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop PM: Writing back config space on device 0000:0c:00.0 at offset 1 (was 100102, writing 100106) Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop wlan0: Initial auth_alg=0 Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:1b:11:fb:9d:00 Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop wlan0: Initial auth_alg=0 Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:1b:11:fb:9d:00 Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop wlan0: RX authentication from 00:1b:11:fb:9d:00 (alg=0 transaction=2 status=0) Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop wlan0: authenticated Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop wlan0: associate with AP 00:1b:11:fb:9d:00 Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop wlan0: authentication frame received from 00:1b:11:fb:9d:00, but not in authenticate state - ignored Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop wlan0: RX AssocResp from 00:1b:11:fb:9d:00 (capab=0x421 status=0 aid=2) Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop wlan0: associated Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): wlan0: link becomes ready Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop wlan0: Initial auth_alg=0 Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:1b:11:fb:9d:00 Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop wlan0: Initial auth_alg=0 Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:1b:11:fb:9d:00 Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop wlan0: RX authentication from 00:1b:11:fb:9d:00 (alg=0 transaction=2 status=0) Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop wlan0: authenticated Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop wlan0: associate with AP 00:1b:11:fb:9d:00 Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop wlan0: authentication frame received from 00:1b:11:fb:9d:00, but not in authenticate state - ignored Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop wlan0: RX AssocResp from 00:1b:11:fb:9d:00 (capab=0x421 status=0 aid=1) Mar 19 14:50:18 dani-laptop wlan0: associated Mar 19 14:50:19 dani-laptop wlan0: Initial auth_alg=0 Mar 19 14:50:19 dani-laptop wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:1b:11:fb:9d:00 Mar 19 14:50:19 dani-laptop wlan0: RX authentication from 00:1b:11:fb:9d:00 (alg=0 transaction=2 status=0) Mar 19 14:50:19 dani-laptop wlan0: authenticated Mar 19 14:50:19 dani-laptop wlan0: associate with AP 00:1b:11:fb:9d:00 Mar 19 14:50:19 dani-laptop wlan0: RX ReassocResp from 00:1b:11:fb:9d:00 (capab=0x421 status=0 aid=2) Mar 19 14:50:19 dani-laptop wlan0: associated Any ideeas? ----- Original Message ---- From: Neil Bothwick To: gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org Sent: Wednesday, March 19, 2008 2:22:11 PM Subject: Re: [gentoo-user] wireless problem On Wed, 19 Mar 2008 05:06:59 -0700 (PDT), Dani Crisan wrote: > I made what you said and now it still connects to dlink but I'll read > the wireless.example. Please don't top-post, it makes conversations difficult to follow and impossible to quote meaningfully. preferred_aps means that it will try that aps first, but if it fails, it will then try dlink. You can force it to only use a specific aps with essid_wlan0="baladei-wifi" but I susopect your problem is that the connection to your preferred aps is failing and dlink being used as a fallback. The system log should show details of the connection process, try "tail -f /var/log/messages" before you do "/etc/init.d/wlan0 start". -- Neil Bothwick When cryptography is outlawed, bayl bhgynjf jvyy unir cevinpl. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo!
