<0> blah :(
<1> without my radar dish, the bluetooth doesn't even clear a brick wall + 10 ft or open air, with it i get thru 5 bricks walls and 50ft :)
<0> it's crazy cuz ii'm picking up aps from elsehwere
<0> i've picked up like 3-4 outside our house and our nearest neighbors are like 2 blocks away
<1> in win i've got a cool little wireless connect-bull**** app (netgear) ... it scans for any networks in range and shows all their strengths and wep/non-wep etc etc... thats a good diagnostic tool
<0> 2 of those always have a higher signal strength than our own :\
<1> hmm... maybe your card isn't working in AP mode OR you haven't got HOSTap ?
<1> errr. hostAP
<0> hostap?
<0> root@indica:~# iwconfig ath0
<0> ath0 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:"adept"
<0> Mode:Managed Frequency:2.452 GHz Access Point: Not-***ociated
<0> Bit Rate:0 kb/s Tx-Power:18 dBm Sensitivity=0/3
<0> Retry:off RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
<0> Encryption key:off
<0> Power Management:off
<0> Link Quality=0/94 Signal level=-95 dBm Noise level=-95 dBm
<0> Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
<1> i do believe hostap tells the card/driver HOW to act like an AP when it is in AP mode, i do believe it has atheros, madwifi and something else drivers
<0> Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
<1> that says managed
<1> not AP
<1> or master
<0> managed == ap i thought
<0> oh yeah, master
<1> or whatever that mode my cards won't do is called
<1> managed = owned by an AP
<2> pwnt.
<1> heh
<0> i think you can thank madwifi wlanconfig for that then
<0> i used setmode ap
<0> it has been set to master before
<1> i gotta test more now i seem to have got this damn k6-2 stable (so far so good,) but i think the gentoo new-style net conf.d/net stuff breaks my wireless (ndiswrapper) ... seems to set a "nickname" before essid, then the card refuses to take an essid... can't find anywhere that i set a nickname, just taht it seems to set it to essid before it sets essid, which seems to not work
<1> err... is madwifi the one for atheros ?
<0> yeah
<1> o.k... thats cool.. i was just confused... so then, FROM MEMORY, you need that + hostap
<1> lemme check something
<0> root@indica:~# iwconfig ath0 mode Master
<0> Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) :
<0> SET failed on device ath0 ; Invalid argument.
<0> :(
<3> aww
<1> dagnabbit... its on the laptop... i'm not booting that thing now
<1> try without caps
<0> same error
<1> http://hostap.epitest.fi/ explains it.. seems to just be a wpa/etc thing, but maybe the other things it mentions re: AP stuff....
<1> hostapd is a user space daemon for access point and authentication servers. It implements IEEE 802.11 access point management, IEEE 802.1X/WPA/WPA2/EAP Authenticators, RADIUS client, EAP server, and RADIUS authentication server. The current version supports Linux (Host AP, madwifi, Prism54 drivers) and FreeBSD (net80211).
<1> from the other page
<0> hrm...
<0> would lacking that account for my inability to enable master mode?
<0> i woulda sworn i had set that before...
<1> possibly... possibly the card is just grumpy 'cos it thinks its linked to another AP or something...
<1> hmmm... i think the mode should be ap maybe, not master.. seems to depend on the driver version
<1> all this madwifi-ng stuff thats coming in and confusing people like me
<2> It's so nice tt osx uses gcc.
<2> that*
<2> All of the emacs command for compiling and debugging still work perfectly =]
<2> commands*
<1> woops.. i broke him
<4> Wee... do that again.
<1> heh
<3> :-)
<2> Haha.
<4> ^_^
<1> hmm.. i might have finally fixed this stupid k6-2... maybe it WAS a dodgy stick of ram, or a loose jumper.... its been coimpiling for 52 mins with a heater pointed at it (well, via me) and the side off now, and seems happy
<1> i like it, cos its the only not-really-necaserry machine that will run this stupid wireless card... stupid pci-breaking mofo's
<1> heh... now its running so well and still below 35degC cpu i'm tempted to clock it a little :)
<1> does have this nice pc133 ram sitting there only running at 100
<1> tempted to unplug the gateway and pull it out from under the table to see if it will take any of these p3's i've got laying around..just that it means a dodgy slot1 heatsink-transfer
<2> Woot.
<2> Xml parser parses text nodes =]
<5> pff
<0> there we go
<6> nice nice
<0> ****s i had to reboot though
<6> getting a kick for my client choosing a nick i had on another network, implicating a bnc
<6> :')
<0> that's what i get for being such a jew and omitting module unload support :P
<2> Only thing left to do is turn entities into characters and back again.
<7> british naval connector?
<2> HeppyCat: Bed Not 'ccupied ;)
<0> now iwlist scan isn't showing any results :\
<3> jessica1 ._.
<1> you don't want iwlist scan... you want to sit there being an AP and let other machines ***ociate with you
<8> Saluton.
<8> Saluton Psych.
<0> hah! there we go
<0> it connected anyway
<3> Hi Ultradm.
<3> ***ume the position!^$*~%$$~$^!@~
<9> Is there a list somewhere of wifi cards natively supported by gentoo?
<3> If only I hadn't used up all my lifelines.
<3> no thanks, don't know where it's been
<10> Anony-schl: gentoo is only a linux... so just look for cards supported by linux
<9> Is there a list of those?
<10> more or less
<10> some chipset is well supported...
<9> <10> some chipset is well supported...
<9> oic
<10> but google a bit
<10> you will find them easilly
<10> prism2 based cards are well supported
<0> i heard atheros and broadcom are supposed to be good
<0> turns out the atheros driver i have to use has proprietary license, though :\\
<3> Hay UltraDM whats goin on.
<11> hmm..
<11> how do a ip-range really work in iptables or so?
<11> like if i want the 123.1.1.1 to 123.1.1.255
<11> to be used in a rule..
<3> Nooo! come back! :O.
<12> hrmm
<12> is anyone running XGL?
<3> is this going to be on the test?
<1> hmmm... there should be some way of confugulating my firewall, methinks, so that if a local machine tries to send to 192.168.1.X (lan is 192.168.0.X) , it uses its default gateway (the server/firewall) and that in turn should be able to send on to ANOTHER gateway, i would have thought ? the 2 ways i tried so far don't seem to work...
<1> ooooh... maybe it does
<13> make the wireless work
<13> irc will be better in the lounge room on a ppc
<1> ppc doesn't mean what you think it does here....
<13> and **** i love this song
<13> ]pocket pc
<13> sorry
<13> see
<13> im politically correct
<1> heh... it doesn't mean that either :)
<13> oh yeah
<13> P C P
<1> hmm... i sorta got it working... a bit...
<13> man
<4> Yeah, I was up that
<14> Long slow raid: [=>...................] resync = 6.0% (14789024/242814336) finish=1336.4min speed=2841K/sec
<15> ?
<4> 69
<15> word

<3> Hay m-27-psg whats goin on.
