Hello, I run the above mentioned combination for W-LAN, at home with WEP and in the office with WPA-PSK. From time to time, very seldom, I encounter damaged TCP traffic, for example: - a mail reaches the next SMTP hop with garbage in the body; - fetching a page with HTTP brings up a message about 'bad HTTP request' with some random chars; - on 'scp' traffic it stops with a message about 'bad MAC addr'; Is this a known issue with the iwi driver/firmware? How is it possible that higher layer (TCP) does not detect this problem in the TCP-checksum stored in the header? Thx in advance for any hint matthias -- Matthias Apitz Manager Technical Support - OCLC PICA GmbH Gruenwalder Weg 28g - 82041 Oberhaching - Germany t +49-89-61308 351 - f +49-89-61308 399 - m +49-170-4527211 e <m.apitz@oclcpica.org> - w http://www.oclcpica.org/ http://guru.UnixLand.de/
