Does it work if you remove module loading and unloading in your preup and postdown? hmmm, it just happened with the old baselayout too. Just as i have noticed with the new baselayout it disconnects almost immidiatelly, but with the old on it works for some time before it breaks. I need to investigate it more. this wifi seem to depend on a dozen of unknown factors - including probably a phase of the moon as well. After like 10 recompiles of different madwifi-ng/wpa_supplicant version combinations i got it to work very stable with the old baselayout. i then upgraded to new baselayout and it stopped to work :( and it doesnt matter if i have the module loaded/unloaded by preup functions - result is the similar Marek |
