I had an earlier email about a watchdog timeout problem with my orinoco card with pci adapter (freebsd4.4)whenever i ifconfig it.else everything looks fine with the led's being normal,wicontrol works too. when my wi is setup in ibss mode,it links up with another 3com pci card(in ad-hoc mode,same SSID,same channel).But i cant ping them.guess its still the ifconfig watchdog timeout problem of my wi driver. strangely when i set up my wi card in ad-hoc mode it doesnt link with the 3com card(in ad-hoc mode,same SSID,same channel) and again cant ping. here's my ifconfig,wicontrol(in ibss mode) and wicontrol(in ad-hoc mode). ----------------------------------------------------- ifconfig ------------------ tx0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::2e0:29ff:fe11:6d85%tx0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 inet 152.15.24.239 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 152.15.24.255 ether 00:e0:29:11:6d:85 media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>) status: active lp0: flags=8810<POINTOPOINT,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x3 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 ppp0: flags=8010<POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 sl0: flags=c010<POINTOPOINT,LINK2,MULTICAST> mtu 552 faith0: flags=8000<MULTICAST> mtu 1500 wi0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::202:2dff:fe3c:66c2%wi0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x7 inet 10.0.0.1 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255 ether 00:02:2d:3c:66:c2 media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect (DS/2Mbps) status: no carrier ssid 101 stationname "FreeBSD WaveLAN/IEEE node" channel 10 authmode NONE powersavemode OFF powersavesleep 100 wepmode OFF weptxkey 1 ------------------------------------------------------ wicontrol(ibss) ---------------- NIC serial number: [ 01UT36369401 ] Station name: [ FreeBSD WaveLAN/IEEE node ] SSID for IBSS creation: [ FreeBSD IBSS ] Current netname (SSID): [ 101 ] Desired netname (SSID): [ 101 ] Current BSSID: [ f2:f3:ea:05:b4:a7 ] Channel list: [ 2047 ] IBSS channel: [ 10 ] Current channel: [ 10 ] Comms quality/signal/noise: [ 0 27 27 ] Promiscuous mode: [ Off ] Port type (1=BSS, 3=ad-hoc): [ 1 ] MAC address: [ 00:02:2d:3c:66:c2 ] TX rate (selection): [ 3 ] TX rate (actual speed): [ 2 ] RTS/CTS handshake threshold: [ 2347 ] Create IBSS: [ On ] Access point density: [ 1 ] Power Mgmt (1=on, 0=off): [ 0 ] Max sleep time: [ 100 ] WEP encryption: [ Off ] TX encryption key: [ 1 ] Encryption keys: [ ][ ][ ][ ] ------------------------------------------------------- wicontrol(adhoc) ----------------- NIC serial number: [ 01UT36369401 ] Station name: [ FreeBSD WaveLAN/IEEE node ] SSID for IBSS creation: [ FreeBSD IBSS ] Current netname (SSID): [ FreeBSD IBSS ] Desired netname (SSID): [ 101 ] Current BSSID: [ 00:00:00:00:00:00 ] Channel list: [ 2047 ] IBSS channel: [ 10 ] Current channel: [ 10 ] Comms quality/signal/noise: [ 0 27 27 ] Promiscuous mode: [ Off ] Port type (1=BSS, 3=ad-hoc): [ 3 ] MAC address: [ 00:02:2d:3c:66:c2 ] TX rate (selection): [ 3 ] TX rate (actual speed): [ 2 ] RTS/CTS handshake threshold: [ 2347 ] Create IBSS: [ Off ] Access point density: [ 1 ] Power Mgmt (1=on, 0=off): [ 0 ] Max sleep time: [ 100 ] WEP encryption: [ Off ] TX encryption key: [ 1 ] Encryption keys: [ ][ ][ ][ ] ------------------------------------------------------ Hope somebody can explain to me whats going on.
