Hi Joerg ... I tried your solution with wireless_tools.23.tar.gz; Now
iwconfig gives me the following
Warning : Device wlan0 has been compiled with version 0
of Wireless Extension, while we are using version 13.
Some things may be broken...
wlan0 IEEE 802.11-DS Nickname:""
Mode:Auto Access Point: 00:00:00:00:00:00Bit Rate=281.017Mb/
s
Tx-Power=0 dBm
Retry:on RTS thr=281016528 B Fragment thr=281016528 B
Power Management00:00:00:00:00:00:on
Link Quality:0 Signal level:0 Noise level:0
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
and I still can't set any of the parameters with iwconfig ( it accepts
it but doesn't change what I want.. ).
I would like to detail a couple of things here:
1) the diff of the wireless.h in the kernel sources & in compiler
sources with the one in the wireless tools is now *the same* : same
version and same stuff inside.
2) I don't really know what the problem could be and it's in fact very
difficult to know due to the following reason: the wireless driver I'm
using atm is *really not standard*; it looks like it's been wrapped
from orinoco, but I'm not really sure about the behaviour.. in any
case I'm stuck to this driver and must use it...
WE-13 should be wireless_tools v. 23.
Have a look here:
