Hi
I-m using Sz4 with wifi only-(ath9k/Atheros 9271 + firmware)..it works,
A look at /var/log/messages points out that i have every 5 min (exacly)
a deauthenticating by local choice (reason=3) and reauthenticating.
iwconfig shows power Managment=off
I found out that this is not the case anymore if I set
"iwconfig wlan0 power on" in a root-terminal.
now i tried to get this saved somehow.In /etc/network.conf I found a promissing option:
WIFI_IWCONFIG_ARGS="".
I tried "power on", "wlan0 power on", "iwconfig wlan0 power on", with and without the quotes with no effect,after connecting power-management is still off.
anyone who knows what I'm doing wrong, please share your knowledge.
cheers

Hi
I forgot to say that the de-reauthentication doesn't occur,
(with Power Management=off), if Data-Traffic goes in or out, means it
doesn't interrupt a download for example.Only If i do nothing it goes
off/on every 5 min.
any hints how to solve this would be appreciated

Add to the bottom of /etc/network.conf
WIFI_POWER_MANAGEMENT="on"
Open /etc/init.d/network.sh
Add this between fi on line 56 and status on line 57if [ "$WIFI_POWER_MANAGEMENT" != "" ]; then
iwconfig $WIFI_INTERFACE power $WIFI_POWER_MANAGEMENT
fi

Hi mojo
In /etc/init.d/network.sh
I found fi at Line 53 / status at 54. There, I've added your code, now it is:53 fi
54 if [ "$WIFI_POWER_MANAGEMENT" != "" ]; then
55 iwconfig $WIFI_INTERFACE power $WIFI_POWER_MANAGEMENT
56 fi
57 statusand it works like a charm
Thank you very much for your helpPosted 11 years ago #
