However, I have still been unsuccessful trying to get IBSS mode to work with the new (or old) "iwi" driver. I ran: ifconfig iwi0 inet ssid FOOBAR channel 5 mediaopt adhoc up and then "ifconfig iwi0" indicates media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect (autoselect ) but no other clients are able to see it. Has anyone gotten this to work? (I can't use BSS mode, because I want to run it as a base station, and "hostap" doesn't work for it - being a non-Prism chipset.) Ross Finlayson Live Networks, Inc.
