Maybe this would be worth mentioning in /usr/src/UPDATING.
Since rebuilding world last weekend, I had connection
problems with iwi0. Under load it would be associated
for less than 10 seconds after which I had to run
"ifconfig wlan0 down up" to get a connection again.
Running the above ifconfig line in a delayed loop
would more or less work for about 30 minutes after
which if_iwi.ko had to be reloaded to get it working
again.
Disabling wme for wlan0 seems to have solved the problem.
My rc.conf used to be:
vaps_iwi0=3D"wlan0"
ifconfig_wlan0=3D"inet 192.168.0.49 ssid ... wepkey 1:... deftxkey 1 wepmod=
e on chanlist 7 bmiss 100 -bgscan country de regdomain indoor"
(Not touching the bmiss and bgscan settings didn't
seem to affect the problem.)
I'm using:
fk@TP51 ~ $pciconf -lv | grep -A 4 iwi0
iwi0@pci0:2:2:0: class=3D0x028000 card=3D0x27128086 chip=3D0x4220808=
6 rev=3D0x05 hdr=3D0x00
vendor =3D 'Intel Corporation'
device =3D 'MPCI3B driverIntel PRO/Wireless 2200BG'
class =3D network
With the access point Netgear WGT 624 v3.
