Hello! Yesterday I've cvsuped my 5.3 system to RELENG_6 and now I have an issue with my Atheros 5212 wlan card. The problem is that if I don't use WEP mode then all works fine. But if I want to use WEP as I've done it under 5.3-RELEASE then I can't ping any hosts in the network (I wait and get no answeres and no error message from ping)... I've tried to load the wlan, wlan_wep, if_ath modules in different ways (from loader.conf, manually, in different order...) but there's always the same problem - i can't get a connection to the wlan network. The loaded kernel modules are: ... wlan.ko wlan_wep.ko if_ath.ko ath_rate.ko ath_hal.ko The config line in rc.conf is: ifconfig_ath0="inet 192.168.0.12 netmask 255.255.255.0 ssid razik.de wepmode mixed wepkey 1234567890123" The ifconfig ath0 output is: ath0:... inet6 ... inet 192.168.0.12 netmask 255.255.255.0.... ether ... media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect (OFDM/54Mbps) status: associated ssid: razik.de channel 9 bssid 00:04e2:ab:85:6e authmode OPEN privacy MIXED deftxkey UNDEF wepkey 1:104-bit txpowmax 47 protmode CTS burst bintval 100 dmesg output is: ath0: <Atheros 5212> mem ..... ath0: Ethernet address: 00:0f:a3....... ath0: mac 5.9 phy 4.3 radio 4.6 ath0: link state changed to UP Does anyone have an idea what there could be wrong?
