Hello all, I was having problems with 2.6.12 + madwifi in master mode. No packets were going out. With tcpdump I see DHCP requests coming in, with strace I see the dhcp daemon sending replies out, but they don't show up in tcpdump. It's caused by this change: http://oss.sgi.com/projects/netdev/archive/2005-05/msg00109.html which btw also causes problems for other people: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=111853727810345&w=2 Madwifi doesn't call netif_carrier_on() in master mode, so Linux drops all packets. When I remove the dev_deactivate() line, it works fine again. Should we fix madwifi or the kernel? Eric |
