Here are the settings: Ubuntu 10.04, madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6-r4103-20100110, Atheros AR5001X+ wireless card, I set the wireless interface (ath0) to work in monitor mode, and on the same channel as the access point(channel 6): sudo iwconfig ath0 channel 6. (Also tried frequency: sudo iwconfig ath0 freq 2.437G) Then when I use the following command to capture beacons: sudo tcpdump -i ath0 -ne link[25]=0x80 it takes much longer time than expected. The access point is broadcasting beacons in default rate 100ms, but it takes almost 20 minutes to collect 200 beacons. Any idea what's going on here?

And off course I have some questions, Could you please help me to resolve them? Perhaps, the trouble is not very big, while you know I'm a freshman of this fields, so... OK, now we are developing a device with wireless access point, it's based on the chipset of Atheros I just want to know when other device with wifi function connected into the wlan of our host device, how can we get the info of the client wifi device? such as IP, MAC, NAME... Are there any available tools can help me to these details? Or, I have to use the API of the driver?? Looking forward to your reply.

I know that in netdevice.h file there is the struct net_device_stats with rx_bytes and tx_bytes fields. I wrote a program that prints on stdout (every x seconds) these two numbers. While for rx_bytes I know that this is the number of *correctly* received bytes, I was wondering: how can I know the number of total *successfully* transmitted bytes? This question comes from the fact that tx_bytes is incremented when is put into the buffer and so it counts also retransmissions (and by the way some of them are performed by hardware...), but I'm interested in just the correct tx_bytes, because I have to compute the goodput. Is there an expert guy (or maybe more than one) that knows how to help me? Thanks in advance.

I am currently working on a research for energy saving in the 802.11 standard and for that I have made a platform with two PCI card (DWL-G520) with atheros chipset. I also use Madwifi as driver. The platform consists of the following: a card will act as AP and the other as station. This station must send a constant number of frames to the access point (eg, sample temperature). The access point can request a smaller amount of samples by the beacon frame to the station. To send fewer frames, I do not under the frecuency of sending of packets in the estation. What we really do is lower the transmission power (txpower) to have packet loss and save energy in the transmission (by IOCTL calls). The problem is that when I lose about 20% of packets the card quickly becomes unstable and starts to have 100% of packets loss. I then dynamically increase power, but takes time to stabilize (20 - 30 seconds). I wish I had a 50% packet loss to increase the margin of my energy saving algorithm. My question is if this problem (going from 20% to 100% loss packets) is due to Madwifi and if a parameter that can be changed. The funny thing is that when there is a 100% loss and tries to send frames, the access point is receiving packets. Probably the card is not receiving acks. Can you help me? I would appreciate greatly. Thank you very much for everything. </pre> francisco cardenas 2011-11-15T16:22:10 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.madwifi.user/15437 <pre>Hey, Which version of Madwifi should I use to work with sr71-a, from ubiquiti?

I have patched my copy of the madwifi-devel stream with Mr. Roskin's AR9220 patch (found at http://madwifi-users.20070.n2.nabble.com/MadWifi-driver-fails-to-recogni ze-Ubiquity-card-td5294763.html &lt;http://madwifi-users.20070.n2.nabble.com/MadWifi-driver-fails-to-recogn ize-Ubiquity-card-td5294763.html&gt; ). The card appears to be working from the software side of things - I can bring up the interface, setup ssid and a channel, and retrieve stats. The radio, however, does not seem to be producing any RF output - confirmed by an 802.11 power analyzer connected to either of the antennas. I have tried setting the RFKILL parameter both in software and hardware (blocking the appropriate PCI pin), to no avail. I would welcome any ideas regarding using similar (pciid 0x168c0029) cards with Madwifi. Perhaps someone would have an updated patch (which would be very appreciated)?

My iwconfig output only shows eth0 and lo. If I configure the regdomain to 0x00 and load ath_pci with modprobe ath_pci countrycode=276 iwconfig shows wifi0 and wifi1 like expected but I am (I guess because of regdomain 0x00) only able to set the txpower to 0dBm (=1mW). So again my question: How can I configure my modules/driver in a way that they are configurable for the following frequency ranges: 2402-2482 20dBm 5170-5250 20dBm no-outdoor 5250-5330 20dBm no-outdoor, dfs 5490-5710 27dBm dfs Most important for me is the frequency band 5490-5710 at a txpower of 27dBm! Thx a lot. vertlim Hi everyone, I'm new to this list so hopefully this is the right place for my questions :) For my project I have to use 802.11a/h outdoor with high transmission power. As I am from Europe I am allowed to use the frequency range 5490-5720 with a maximum EIRP of 27dBm if DFS is supported.

Although the client associates fine, I am unable to ping ath0 interface. I have statically assigned IP to client since I dont have a DHCP server running. So here are the steps I have followed till now: 1) Downloaded source from http://madwifi-project.org/ and installed the same on my linux machine. Here are details of my linux version: [root&lt; at &gt;localhost ~]# uname -a Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 #1 SMP Thu Jun 18 12:47:50 EDT 2009 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux 3) In /etc/modprobe.d/madwifi alias wlan0 ath_pci blacklist ath5k options ath_pci autocreate=ap 4) Since I read in forums that DWL-AG530 comes with a broken country code, I changed the regdomain to 0x0 (also tried with 0x16) 5) modprobe ath_pci countrycode=840 6) wlanconfig ath0 destroy 7) wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode ap 8) iwpriv ath0 authmode 1 (open mode) 9) iwconfig ath0 essid "test_wlan" 10) ifconfig ath0 10.1.1.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 11) ifconfig ath0 up *An issue I see, is that everytime I try to set the channel using iwconfig ath0 channel 6 (or whatever) the kernel panics and the system goes to hang state, so I leave it at default* I have a windows 7 client, on which i configure a static IP of 10.1.1.12 and connect to wlan "test_wlan". The client associates, and also I was able to sniff the assoc rsp, and ack packets from the air which had a "Success" status. However, when I ping 10.1.1.10 (ath0), no response. I get a Dest Unreachable from 10.1.1.12. So I added arp entry for 10.1.1.10 manually on my client. When I do that the ICMP request times out, and I do see the ICMP requests in the air. I have been trying to figure out if the driver is dropping these packets due to some configuration thats wrong? Do let me know if anyone has faced similar issues. i have tried using bridges between ath0 and eth0 interface, Even that hasnt worked. Attaching the outputs of ifconfig, iwconfig and dmesg (No errors i saw in dmesg) along. Also, if anyone has used any of the currently available atheros chipsets along with Madwifi successfully to set up an AP (Master mode), would be great if you could provide me the Chipsets model number, and Madwifi version.. I am fine with any Atheros based Chipset that is available in the market, as long as I can use it with madwifi to setup in AP mode. Just wondering if the DWL-AG530 may be having issues in AP mode, since it works just fine as a wireless client.

I can make it work using the stable madwifi, but if I want to change channel width, I instead use the ubnt hal in place of the regular hal.

I look at some of the source code and I cannot find anything related to the MAC header in the sk_buff at all. As of right now I only have a wireless usb card which does not work with MadWifi, but if it seem possible then I can get one of the card that would work with MadWifi and try it out.

One end of the link operates as a Master and other is a Station. A transparent bridge ot each end connects eth0 and ath0 In have added code in madwifi ieee80211_hardstart &amp; ieee80211_deliver_data The added code are filters that look at the data and based on the filter setup decides to forward the skb or drop it completely. I had to add the filter in the madwifi code as I do not have access to the box on the eth0. This code has been running fine for the last six months. Recently, I added some more rules to the filters. With these changes the link works perfeectly fine for approximatly 30 minutes. After 30 minutes everytime the Station's kernel panics and the system reboots. The link is reestablished once again. This keeps repeating. There is no problem with the Master side of the link. I have no clue as to why this happens. Attached is the dump from the kernel. The stack trace in the kernel dump is always at the very same Any help or leads to fix the problem are welcome Thanks in advance R.Mohan CPU 2 Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 220316ea, epc == c00a8e1c, ra == c00a8e0c === MIPS MT State Dump === </pre> R.Mohan 2011-07-28T02:19:38 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.madwifi.user/15405 <pre>Hi, We are going to use atheros ar5212 chipset in our custom board.I understood that the madwifi driver is for Atheros chipset.I got the LSDK(Linux driver development kit for wireless chipset).In the LSDK contains applications and drivers.The application folder contains the wpa_supplicant &amp; hostapd.Its mandatory to use wpa_supplicant &amp; hostpad deamon to configure the AR5212.

(there is no support in "madwifi-0.9.4" source) I manually added the entry for 0xff1d PCI device in the PCI driver but after inserting the module the pci driver complaints about eeprom magic. I have used kernel 2.6.21.7 and required to use it. Requesting your help to resolve this issue .

This is what I've done: $ sudo mv /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/net/wireless /root/backup/ I downloaded madwifi 0.9.3.2 and 0.9.4, both have similar errors when I do $ sudo make Checking requirements... ok. Checking kernel configuration... ok. make -C /lib/modules/2.6.31-14-generic/build SUBDIRS=/usr/src/madwifi-0.9.4 modules make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.31-14-generic' CC [M] /usr/src/madwifi-0.9.4/ath/if_ath.o In file included from /usr/src/madwifi-0.9.4/ath/../net80211/ieee80211_monitor.h:45, from /usr/src/madwifi-0.9.4/ath/if_ath.c:71: /usr/src/madwifi-0.9.4/ath/../ath/if_athvar.h:98: error: conflicting types for 'irqreturn_t' include/linux/irqreturn.h:16: note: previous declaration of 'irqreturn_t' was here /usr/src/madwifi-0.9.4/ath/if_ath.c: In function 'ath_attach': /usr/src/madwifi-0.9.4/ath/if_ath.c:402: error: 'struct net_device' has no member named 'priv' /usr/src/madwifi-0.9.4/ath/if_ath.c:678: error: 'struct net_device' has no member named 'open' .......

Install the sharutils from the package manager: $ sudo apt-get -y install sharutils Make the drivers sudo make clean sudo make sudo make install No errors so far. $ sudo gedit /etc/modules add a line at the very end of the file: ath_pci In /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf, add line : blacklist ath5k blacklist ath9k In /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ath_pci.conf uncomment ath_pci(delete the # before #blacklist ath_pci) Reboot After reboot, it seems that the wireless interface card can't be detected, the switch is on but the light is off, and output for iwconfig is ~$ iwconfig lo no wireless extensions. eth0 no wireless extensions. I tried to put the original wireless driver back: $ sudo mv /root/backup/wireless /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/net/ and change the blacklist file back, the wireless card still can't be detected, and the output of iwconfig is the same as above. Anyone any ideas, please? PS: Ticket #2391 has patch for madwifi trunk 4122 and ANI support for AR9285 http://madwifi-project.org/ticket/2391 but the trunk I use is 4144. There's also a saying "There is no way to support AR9285 or any new hardware in the madwifi-0.9.4 branch since it has a non-free HAL that cannot be patched. " Is this true? And in madwifi wiki/Compatibility/Atheros, http://madwifi-project.org/wiki/Compatibility/Atheros#AtherosAR928XakaAR5009 at the bottom, it says that Atheros AR928X chipsets usually works well with ath9k driver. So could this be the reason that madwifi doesn't work on my laptop with AR9285 wireless network adapter?

Is there any parameter i have to change to have this satistics? The truth is that I'm trying to see when the modulation changes. ‘Cause according to some tests I’ve made, the modulation goes from 64-QAM to 16-QAM (OFDM) and then jump to DSSS, without passing through QPSK and BPSK. Does anybody knows a good way understand this behavior? (It could be my board, but i really need to check the code for more info) Thanks in advance, Juliana ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ EditLive Enterprise is the world's most technically advanced content authoring tool.
