Hello again,

I've just downloaded David's last CVS commits concerning the atheros
driver.

Now my cards supports correctly 802.11b mode.

I have still the following troubles (asking even more, and more ;) ... )

1. In host AP mode, an 802.11b/g card doesn't seem to support both modes
at the same moment. If I fix it in 802.11b (ifconfig ath0 mode 11b), no
problem everything is OK. If I fix it in 802.11g mode (ifconfig ath0 mode
11g), 802.11g hosts works correctly, but not 802.11b ones. Is there
anything particular to do?

2. Since this kernel update I have troubles with the wep encryption in
hostap mode. 48 or 104 bits keys don't seem to be correctly used for
decryption (a tcpdump shows really strange packets on the hostap
interface). I'll try to check that a little bit more tomorrow.

Konstantin
