I recently downloaded the newest Angstrom demo and kernel and now my
Trendnet TEW-429UB usb wifi stick won't work with it. It worked with
the old Angstrom demo that I was using from last November-ish.
Here's the serial data when I plug it into the powered usb hub
/sbin/iwconfig seems to work fine, but when I call /sbin/udhcpc -i
wlan0, it complains:
"# /sbin/udhcpc -i wlan0
udhcpc (v1.13.2) started
run-parts: /etc/udhcpc.d/00avahi-autoipd exited with code 1
SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory
Sending discover...
udhcpc: sendto: Network is down
Sending discover...
udhcpc: sendto: Network is down
..."
This worked on the old Angstrom demo filesystem and kernel that I was
using way back around November, but I need some of the features from
the newer demo and kernel such as the 3D graphics. Can anyone help me
get the usb wifi stick working again? Perhaps I'm just missing a
module?
When I unplug it and plug it back in, I get the errors in my pastebin
link. That's what I had to do before this newer kernel/filesystem.
Unplug it and plug it back in - to make it work. Now it throws a fit
with Error number -110.
I just tried overwriting the zd1211b_uphr on the BeagleBoard from my
ubuntu 8.10 distribution. It didn't work, same errors (-110) when I
plug it in after boot up. Now, if I have the usb wifi stick plugged in
when I turn on the BeagleBoard, it won't even display anything on the
lcd monitor anymore after the boot screen.
Yes sir. I used to have this wifi stick working back on an old 2.6.26
kernel and filesystem pre-SGX driver release back in November via a
self powered high-speed usb 2.0 hub. I replaced the kernel and
filesystem with the newest from the Angstrom demo and now I'm getting
error -110s, detailed here:
I even tried replacing all of the files in /lib/firmware/zd1211/ with
the files from the SD card that I had working at the end of last year,
but that yields the same junk.
Out of curiosity, would a sinister u-boot affect this in anyway?
Very strange … I just try Ubuntu port (jaunty) and wifi works fine …
[ note : ubuntu is slow … very slow … but wifi and keyboard works fine ]
I use the same kernel / firmware. I don’t know why but sometimes , Firmware load is ok , I can scan wireless AP , But impossible to stay connected !!

reason=3 is exactly what it says, “local choice” . That means you
decided to disconnect, or some software makes that choice for you… It
is most likely NetworkManager/wpa_supplicant. Try to make sure they
are not running, or at least configured to help you rather than mess
with you. Probably not a kernel problem.

Hi David,
Did you ever manage to get this working? I'm currently stuck at a very
similar point, except I'm using a Linksys WUSB54GC with the ra73.bin
firmware...
It seems to recognize the stick and the stick seems to associate with the
Access Point, but the shortly after disassociates with "reason=3" as in your
case. I have currently no clue why, which is why I would like to hear if you
managed to get up running?...
… but wifi and keyboard works fine ]
