Just found this email sent to stable@ almost three years ago; sadly I have to confirm iwi(4) still exhibits these problems on fairly recent 7-STABLE (early Juneish). Maybe I have better luck on net@ (I am particularly interested in working monitor mode). Thanks. Any debug information will be gladly provided. Pointers where to look (revisions to try, patches, etc.) are greatly appreciated. ./danfe > iwi_newstate: INIT -> INIT flags 0x0 > enter FW state 1 > Setting MAC address to 00:0e:35:91:2b:0b > sending command idx=0 type=11 len=6 > Configuring adapter > sending command idx=1 type=6 len=20 > Setting power mode to 0 > sending command idx=2 type=17 len=4 > Setting RTS threshold to 2346 > sending command idx=3 type=15 len=4 > Setting fragmentation threshold to 2346 > sending command idx=4 type=16 len=4 > Setting .11bg supported rates (12) > sending command idx=5 type=22 len=16 > Setting .11a supported rates (0) > sending command idx=6 type=22 len=16 > Setting initialization vector to 3524349664 > sending command idx=7 type=34 len=4 > Setting wep key index 0 len 0 > sending command idx=8 type=18 len=20 > Setting wep key index 1 len 0 > sending command idx=9 type=18 len=20 > Setting wep key index 2 len 0 > sending command idx=10 type=18 len=20 > Setting wep key index 3 len 0 > sending command idx=11 type=18 len=20 > Enabling adapter > sending command idx=12 type=2 len=0 > iwi_newstate: INIT -> RUN flags 0x1 > iwi_newstate: RUN -> RUN flags 0x1 > exit FW state 1 > Setting WME parameters > sending command idx=13 type=25 len=96
