Bug Description
I use the iwpriv commands for /etc/network/
-------
iface ra0 inet dhcp
pre-up iwconfig ra0 essid <essid>
pre-up iwconfig ra0 mode managed
pre-up iwpriv ra0 set AuthMode=WPAPSK
pre-up iwpriv ra0 set EncrypType=TKIP
pre-up iwpriv ra0 set WPAPSK=
wireless-essid <essid>
auto ra0
-------
It has worked before in herd3/4, but then stopped working when iwpriv command removed from driver. (set command in rt2500)
Now iwpriv working correctly until last week, then wireless has stopped working altogether with various scenarios.
ifup ra0 sometime works with dhcp client reporting errors, still routing correctly and getting IP addresses on subnet. Othertimes no response from dhcp server ( according to dhcp client )
