I've decided to try out the CVS version of the driver because I'd like to have access point scanning capabilities. However, although the orinoco_cs module from vanilla 2.6.6 works fine, 0.15rc1STA simply can't connect to the access point.

eth1: New link status: Disconnected (0002)
eth1: New link status: Connected (0001)

eth1: New link status: Association Failed (0006)

The card connects first but then disconnects. I guess you have a scripts that sets some parameter that requires reset and prevents further association.

I don't know if it helps, but this is what I get with the module from linux 2.6.6:
[snip]
eth1: New link status: Disconnected (0002)
eth1: New link status: Connected (0001)
eth1: no IPv6 routers present
eth1: New link status: Disconnected (0002)
eth1: New link status: Connected (0001)

That's the same thing except that the card associates after disconnect.

It's better that you set the parameters first and then bring the interface up. This would prevent the disconnect in both cases.

See ifconfig and iwconfig output for the interface. Try to figure out what scripts touch the interface after it has been brought up and what exactly they do.

If you are using WEP, please make sure you use the correct key and the authentication algorithm.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, feel free to ask me for more information if it could help, as I wasn't quite sure what else could I sent to help.

Please post ifconfig and iwconfig output after the association failure.
