Wireless Network Loses Connection
I have a wireless network setup up for my laptop - Lenovo T61 running NetBSD 5.0 RC1. I have wpa_supplicant configured and running:
Code:
# WPA_SUPPLICANT.CONF ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant ctrl_interface_group=wheel # home network; AT&T DSL with 2701HG-B Gateway network={ ssid="######" scan_ssid=1 key_mgmt=WPA-PSK psk="######" } I'm not certain why it loses the connection - whether it is a feature of WPA (though, I am actively using the link), or if it is just the nature of wireless, or something else? Any ideas?

Funny anecdote, but not very constructively helpful for me. Thanks anyway.

What driver are you using? try -bgscan

I'm using the wpi driver -- I have a Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG. The driver works, it's just that the signal gets lost every 1-3 hours - at which point I have to reconnect.
