Hi,

i've tried to get gpxe with an Atheros wireless card to work. But it won't. I'm using the code from http://git.etherboot.org/?p=people/oremanj/gpxe.git;a=tree;h=refs/heads/wireless;hb=wireless.

Command 'iwstat' shows the current state of the adapter
[Sig] SSID BSSID Ch Crypt/Auth
-------------------------------------------------------------
[ 41] ME 00:1f:3f:17:49:5e 1 WPA2 PSK
[ 3] Hirsch6 00:12:2a:05:73:45 6 WPA2 PSK

Command 'iwlist' show all available SSID
net0: 00:18:e7:2b:05:f2 on PCI00:14.0 (closed)
[Link:down, TX:0 TXE:0 RX:0 RXE:0]
[Link status: Not connected (0x38086001)]
[802.11 not associated, Ch:14 Sig:14/40 dB, Qual:0% Rate:1 Mbps]

After setting SSID and KEY as described at http://etherboot.org/wiki/wirelessboot and run command 'dhcp net0' only an errormessage will appear.
Also setting DEBUG=ath5k,ath5k_phy,pci,wpa shows nothing which gives me a hint where to looking for the problem.

Can anybody give me an advice!?

See below the trace from the gpxe console. GPXE over wired network works perfectly.

With best regards
Peter
