Description Matthew 2007-05-27 00:51:52 UTC
Description of problem:
knetworkmanager and my intel 3945 card don't work with WPA
Also, knetworkmanager has crashed and I cannot kill it via kill -sigkill

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Fedora 7 KDE LiveCD RC2
Using default settings, iwl3945 kernel module is loaded

How reproducible:
Right click on knetworkmanager, "Connect to other wireless network", enter 
information (WPA 2, AES). 

Connecting to wpa2 on my dd-wrt described as "WPA2 Pre-shared key 
mixed" "WPA-Shared Key"


Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
  
Actual results:


Expected results:


Additional info:
It did detect another open router and show it but I didn't try connecting to 
it.
Perhaps the problem is that you need to include a way to enter the key and not 
just the passphrase?

Maybe a little old, but seems to be similar.

I'd like to put this against:

Comment 3 Matthias Saou 2007-06-05 22:42:36 UTC
Sorry, but not much can be done regarding the firmware, this seems more like a
problem with the kernel module, so reassigning.

Comment 4 Matthew 2007-06-09 15:20:15 UTC
It appears that WEP and WPA 1 don't work as well. 

I was able to get a connection by disabling all encryption.

And that was with a kernel.org 2.6.21.3 kernel patched with:
mac80211 v8
iwlwifi v0.0.24

Probably unrelated to this problem, but it looks like SELinux is (or would be if
I hadn't disabled it already) blocking knetworkmanager->wpa_supplicant communication

Comment 5 Hans de Goede 2007-06-10 11:53:22 UTC
The selinux problems are known and are being worked on, see bug 242015

But since you are running in permissive mode, those aren't the problem. The
iwl3945 in the F-7 kernel has known troubles working with wpa.

There is an F7 kernel-update candidate available here:
http://people.redhat.com/davej/kernels/Fedora/fc7/RPMS.kernel/

Which amongst other things contains various fixes to the iwl3945 driver. Please
try this kernel and report back how it works for you.

Always be carefull when testing new kernels. Use rpm -ivh to install the new
kernel besides your current one so that you can always boot back into the old
kernel.

kernel.org 2.6.21.3 config

Comment 9 Matthew 2007-06-12 06:29:20 UTC
Using 2.6.21-1.3226 I saw no noticeable difference compared to stock install F7
kernel.

One interesting note, my custom kernel.org 2.6.21.3 w/ iwlwifi patches:
mac80211 v8
iwlwifi v0.0.24

...has different behavior.
When I enter my WPA info and try to connect my kwireless applet will flash
values for link quality, signal strength, and noise level. It looks like real
info as if it can connect but doesn't realize it and then disconnects.

Using stock and updated F7 kernels does not display this behavior.

I'll try posting my custom kernel config and try to eventually post some system
logs of knetworkmanager while I'm trying to connect.

Stock F7 kernels: 2.6.21-1.3194.fc7, newer one 2.6.21-1.3226.fc7

Please try the kernels from here:

   http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=10941

Do they work any better for you?

Comment 11 Matthew 2007-07-21 19:21:46 UTC
Not any better, using:

Linux version 2.6.22.1-27.fc7 (kojibuilder.redhat.com) (gcc
version 4.1.2 20070502 (Red Hat 4.1.2-12)) #1 SMP Tue Jul 17 17:13:26 EDT 2007

when I start wpa_supplicant manually here's what I get:

# /usr/sbin/wpa_supplicant -Dwext -iwlan0 -u -w -c
/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
ioctl[SIOCSIWAUTH]: Operation not supported
WEXT auth param 4 value 0x0 - ioctl[SIOCSIWAUTH]: Operation not supported
WEXT auth param 5 value 0x1 -  

Once I've started that I tried using knetworkmanager again. It shows "Activation
stage: Configuring device" and goes to 28% (always) then says "Connection
Failure". (like it always did).

After I do this I get the additional output from wpa_supplicant:

ioctl[SIOCSIWSCAN]: Network is down
Failed to initiate AP scan.
ioctl[SIOCSIWSCAN]: Network is down
Failed to initiate AP scan.
ioctl[SIOCSIWSCAN]: Network is down
Failed to initiate AP scan.

When I CTRL-C to force wpa_supplicant to close I get:

CTRL-EVENT-TERMINATING - signal 2 received
ioctl[SIOCSIWAUTH]: Operation not supported
WEXT auth param 5 value 0x0 - ioctl[SIOCSIWAUTH]: Operation not supported
WEXT auth param 4 value 0x0 - rmdir[ctrl_interface]: No such file or directory


Content of wpa_supplicant.conf:

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=wheel

network={
	ssid="any"
	key_mgmt=NONE
}

I was able to get it to work manually.
1. Edit wpa_supplicant.conf file to be:

ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=wheel

network={
	ssid="MYAPESSID"
	psk="MYAPPSK"
	priority=5
}

network={
	ssid="any"
	key_mgmt=NONE
}

2. Run command:
/sbin/iwconfig wlan0 essid "MYAPESSID"

3. Get ip address:
/sbin/dhclient wlan0

Comment 12 Tim Niemueller 2007-07-21 19:35:34 UTC
I'm using kernel 2.6.22.1-29.fc7 with the new firmware from
http://intellinuxwireless.org/iwlwifi/downloads/iwlwifi-3945-ucode-2.14.4.tgz
and it works.

I'm using NetworkManager with a WPA/WPA2. The connection is stable (I have used
it for hours and transferred several GBs without a problem). I'm happy again.
Only suspend/resume remains broken.

Comment 13 Matthew 2007-07-21 19:44:16 UTC
(In reply to comment #12)

Tim, can you try knetworkmanager as well and see if that works the same for you?


Comment 14 Tim Niemueller 2007-07-21 21:31:51 UTC
(In reply to comment #13)

Sorry, not at this time. I have no KDE installed and currently not the time. Do
you use the new firmware? Have you tried nm-applet?


Comment 15 Hansen Tanjung 2007-07-23 10:47:09 UTC
Mine is working too, kernel-2.6.22.1-27.fc7 with new firmware from Intel. I
think iwlwifi-firmware.noarch must be update too for the working Intel 3945ABG.
The old iwlwifi-firmware is 2.14.3, the new one is 2.14.4.

Matthew, knetworkmanager is frontend for NetworkManager, so I think working too
with new firmware.

Comment 16 Hansen Tanjung 2007-07-23 10:53:08 UTC
Find this: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=11168
Seems like need pushing this iwlwifi to update state :-)

Comment 17 John W. Linville 2007-07-23 18:38:25 UTC
The iwlwifi-firmware package is available in the update repository now.  
Please updated it and try again.  Does that work?

Comment 18 Steven Stern 2007-07-23 23:21:59 UTC
Installed firmware. Didn't work after reboot; required a power cycle. But...
It's now working.

Comment 19 Russell Harrison 2007-07-31 20:29:43 UTC
I am still unable to connect to a hidden ssid with WPA --> PEAP --> TKIP

I'm using the latest firmware posted July 27th.

Comment 20 Matthew 2007-08-01 04:24:28 UTC
Using nm-applet I was able to get it almost all the way there. I turned on
broadcast on my AP. Entered my information into nm-applet. Then my signal
indicators jumped up on kwireless. Then I just did "/sbin/dhclient wlan0" and it
worked.

knetworkmanager and nm-applet still show me as unconnected.
Is there some kind of instrumented build for these things with verbose messages
that I could submit?

I tried switching broadcast back off, rebooted and it wouldn't connect at all
with nm-applet. Turned broadcast back on, rebooted, and it got all the way up
associated. I just had to /sbin/dhclient wlan0 and then I was on (though
nm-applet still didn't show me as connected)

So it would seem that something different happens with broadcast enabled.

FYI, I have an ***HP Pavilion DV5000*** Sept. 2006
It might be helpful if other people mentioned what model laptops they had.

Comment 21 John W. Linville 2007-08-02 19:31:21 UTC
I'm going to close this issue as CURRENTRELEASE as the basic driver problem 
seems to be fixed.

nm-applet and/or knetworkmanager probably continue to show you as unconnected 
because you went behind their backs with the "dhclient wlan0".  BTW, are you 
running them both at the same time?  I don't know if that is supposed to work 
or not.  Running them one at a time, if you still don't get a connection then 
you might open a new bug for that.

Re: hidden SSID -- that is a known problem, but it hasn't totally been 
sorted-out whether it is a NetworkManager/wpa_supplicant issue or a kernel 
issue.  I am fairly certain there is a bug open against NetworkManager for 
that (don't have it ATM, you'll have to search).

Can you downgrade security to WEP (or open) on your access point long enough 
to see if you are able to associate with a hidden SSID using just iwconfig?

   killall dhclient
   ifconfig wlan0 up
   iwlist wlan0 scan
   iwconfig wlan0 key <WEP key> # if you are using WEP
   iwconfig wlan0 essid <hidden SSID>
   dhclient wlan0

Does that work?  If not, please open a new bug "can connect to hidden SSID w/ 
mac80211-based driver" and post the output of "iwconfig wlan0" in it.

If it does work, find that existing NM bug and add a comment to that.

Thanks!
