When i plug the usb device, and there is absolutely no network activity, exactly after five minutes the device deassociates from the access point. I've put some debug printf's in ural_newstate and when i plug the device, i get several IEEE80211_S_SCAN state changes, then i gets from IEEE80211_S_AUTH to ASSOC and then RUN. Nothing wrong here, but exactly after five minutes of no activity (measured with stopwatch) i get a state transition from IEEE80211_S_RUN to IEEE80211_S_AUTH and it stays that way, until i remove/insert the device again or send HUP to wpa_supplicant and restart dhclient. This looks maybe like wpa_supplicant problem, and i think i've had similar problems with ath(4) mini-pci card and card bus ral(3), but as far as i remember the period of inactivity was much greater with them (i'll try to test this on these cards too when i have access to them again) Regards, - --niki -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFEvLWOHNAJ/fLbfrkRAkSbAJ90SYFCkdtjEw3hckrQ/B2O0geWHgCgoj5j gF7/O+dMKdNUrvFydNODQrE= =piip -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
