Seems there is some kind of regression in iwlagn with 3.1.5: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/214856
Indeed, but I would rather expect commit causing breakage is: > 5c30a5b33f77264cddcfb1a6659d3a9ac2661103 iwlagn: fix HW crypto for TX-only keys not: > 43c308bd8d0a3e7d98c5abcd41a4a3fada3d198f iwlwifi: do not re-configure HT40 after associated Tomorrow I'll provide test kernels and we will see (or maybe intel will provide proper fix in that time :)
Roger, please check if one of these kernels make iwlwifi works in your setup: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3584255 http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=3584274
Same issue here, 3.1.4-1.fc16.x86_64 works fine. 02:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6230 (rev 34) Subsystem: Intel Corporation Centrino Advanced-N 6230 AGN Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 49 Memory at c7400000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=8K] Capabilities: <access denied> Kernel driver in use: iwlagn Kernel modules: iwlagn

The revert_hwcrypto one does not. Many thanks for the quick response. Roger
Here is exact fix posted by Wey. http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=132388345109047&w=2 Josh, please apply.
OK, will do.
Applied to f15/f16 (both are on 3.1.5).
