At first sight client station is connected and ping is ok. After putting some load at wireless link ( opening big web page or stating download file and client machine) link hangs. Sometimes dhcp does not work, but if I set manual IP address traffic comes for a little time and hangs. Using tcpdump in most case gives me following output: [root@nomad ~]# tcpdump -i wlan0 -n tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode listening on wlan0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 96 bytes [root@nomad ~]# tcpdump -i wlan0 -n tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode listening on wlan0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 96 bytes 08:56:26.510840 00:1f:3b:27:22:ab > ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff Null Supervisory, Receiver not Ready, rcv seq 64, Flags [Poll], length 6 08:56:26.510860 00:1f:3b:27:22:ab > ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff Null Supervisory, Receiver not Ready, rcv seq 64, Flags [Poll], length 6 Sometimes I see traffic from client machine only (arp requests) May be it is connected with some broadcasting problem. If anybody needs I can provide ssh access to machine - it is test setup, I want to make 3G/Wireless router for my car :) The machine is old P3 (IBM Thinkpad T22), but I have tested on few other machines with exatcly the same result. >How-To-Repeat: insert ralink-equiped usb device: ugen0.2: <Ralink> at usbus0 rum0: <Ralink 802.11 bg WLAN, class 0/0, rev 2.00/0.01, addr 2> on usbus0 rum0: MAC/BBP RT2573 (rev 0x2573a), RF RT2528 [root@nomad ~]# I use this scrpt to create wlan0: [root@nomad ~]# cat /root/ifcreate #!/usr/local/bin/bash wifi="wlan0" wdev="rum0" wauth="open" loc="indoor" echo creaing $wifi ifconfig $wifi down ifconfig $wifi destroy ifconfig $wifi create wlandev $wdev wlanmode hostap authmode $wauth\ ssid nomad country BG $loc sleep 2 ifconfig wlan0 192.168.90.1/24 up # wlandebug -i $wifi +scan+auth+debug+assoc /usr/local/etc/rc.d/isc-dhcpd restart /etc/rc.d/named restart pfctl -d pfctl -f /etc/pf.conf pfctl -e ifconfig wlan0 outout from it: [root@nomad ~]# /root/ifcreate creaing wlan0 ifconfig: interface wlan0 does not exist ifconfig: interface wlan0 does not exist dhcpd not running?
