Re: AR9285 no scan results on Lucid
The 'lsmod | grep ath' output is in my first message, i've even tried to remove the ath9k mod and reattach it with the nohwcrypt=1 parameter, as i read it somewhere in a forum.
Didn't seem to help then.
However i'll try it again tomorrow, when i'm back in office
- Thanks
Re: AR9285 no scan results on Lucid
As i thought:
'lsmod | grep ath' -> as in first message
after 'sudo modprobe -r ath9k' -> empty
after 'sudo modprobe ath9k nohwcrypt=1' -> as in first message
'ifconfig -a' after 'modprobe -r' -> wlan0 is gone
after 'modprobe ath9k ...' -> wlan0 exists again
'sudo iwlist wlan0 scan' -> no scan results
dosn't anyone know about some low-level diagnosis of the card, or some log-levels so i could trace the 'iwlist scan' command?

Yes. The low-level diagnostics are in dmesg:I'd try again:Note the time-stamp at the last line so we can see what happens after that. Next, do:
Code:
sudo modprobe -r ath9k
sudo modprobe ath9k nohwcrypt=1
dmesg | grep ath9
Post the result and we'll troubleshoot.

I just gave the notebook back to the manucaturer for repair. Hopefully this will help. Otherwise i'll come back to this thread and do the analytics you propose.
Many thanks.

I'll be glad to help.
Re: AR9285 no scan results on Lucid
Just to clarify what was happening. It seems to be an antenna issue! I came across this by chance, when i started the laptop having a wireless router (to be configured) right on my desk - and i catched a signal with the wireless card!
So the laptop goes back to the manufacturer for the fouth time - happy end is near!
