*Hi For a couple of months ago, I bought a wireless network card for a stationary computer D-Link * *AirPlus G DWL-G510 (PCI) IIRC, there are several versions of this card, with different chipsets on them. I got the one with a RaLink chipset, and were happy to find out, that ralink provided drivers for this chipset. Afer downloading the driver for RT61 wireless cards from RaLink, i followed this very nice howto http://susewiki.org/index.php?title=Setting_up_RT61_Wireless_Cards It was success at first hit, and I am currently running it together with a Linksys AP, set up with WPA-PSK. **After setting up my wireless interface, it connects just fine, and iwconfig shows something like (unimportant output removed):* *ra0 RT61 Wireless ESSID:"SolidAP" Mode:Managed Frequency:11 MHz Access Point: 00:16:B6:97:41:84 Link Quality=61/100 Signal level:-80 dBm Noise level:-111 dBm 0 errors, 0 invalid etc. Now, to the problem: After a random amount of time (sometimes minutes, sometimes days), it looses the association with the ESSID, and never reconnects. iwconfig outputs: **ra0 RT61 Wireless ESSID:"" Mode:Managed Frequency:11 MHz Access Point: 00:16:B6:97:41:84 Link Quality=0/100 Signal level:-80 dBm Noise level:-111 dBm **Why does it loose the association ? And even weirder, a simple /etc/init.d/network restart does NOT help, I have to do the following in order: stop network rmmod the driver module insmod it again start network before it gets the ESSID back. Any clue ? *
