!try ifconfig wi0 up
Yes, that's the "magic" !
Following "ifconfig wi0 up", "wicontrol -i wi0 -l" reports
our local access point directly:
1 station:
ap[0]:
netname (SSID): [ XXXXXX ]
BSSID: [ 00:05:5d:XX:XX:XX ]
Channel: [ XX ]
Quality/Signal/Noise [signal]: [ 42 / 100 / 58 ]
[dBm]: [ 42 / -49 / -91 ]
BSS Beacon Interval [msec]: [ 90 ]
Capinfo: [ ESS WEP ]
And "dstumbler wi0 -s" appears to work well now, too.
Many thanks for setting me on the right path here !
