I had to upgrade because there was no ral(4) driver for FreeBSD 5.4 but only for 6.0, which I needed after I had switched from 3C900 Combo (802.3 whatever 10Base2) to Edimax EW-7128g (802.11b/g). The latter card is based on RT2525 and RT2560 chips/modules. I'm using WPA-TKIP to connect it to an AVM Fritz!Box Fon WLAN. The computer is dual boot with SUSE Linux 9.3, where RA card is absolutely stable and does 48 Mbps without trouble. Booting FreeBSD 6.0-BETA3 or -RC1, I constantly see lines like these from cvsup running on FreeBSD: Parsing supfile "/usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile" Connecting to cvsup7.de.FreeBSD.org Connected to cvsup7.de.FreeBSD.org Server software version: SNAP_16_1g Negotiating file attribute support Exchanging collection information Establishing multiplexed-mode data connection Running TreeList failed: Network write failure: Connection closed Will retry at 19:10:59 and in my ssh client (running on Linux, logging in to that FreeBSD machine), with varying numbers: Disconnecting: Bad packet length 3626208547. Something in TKIP, WLAN or ral appears to be hosed. Anyone else seeing this? -- Matthias Andree
