Wanna eliminate the problems of WLAN btw QNX and XP machines   
Hi all,
I have two target installed with the QNX632, and one XP as the IDE machine. I started the Orinoco 802.11b PC card on 
both of the QNX632 machines, and on the XP as well. configure them as the adhoc mode.
Then i tried to ping from one another. For the two qnx machines, with "nicinfo -r en1", only the number of bytes 
increased while the # of received pkts remained all the time. 

Previously, the three could work fine but still failed to work well sometimes. Overall, it seems that this 3 nodes adhoc
 network is somehow not robust. Would appreciate any ideas and suggestions. 

P.S. : the Orinoco card on XP should be working just like a normal commercial 802.11b card(the led indicating the 
network activity keeps flashing), while on qnx, the led just got fired after around 2 seconds, seems rather inactive.

Thanks,
Eric

RE: Wanna eliminate the problems of WLAN btw QNX and XP machines   
Unfortunately I don't have 3 Orinoco adapters to test with. If you just
run 2 adapters, does it work OK?

Re: RE: Wanna eliminate the problems of WLAN btw QNX and XP machines   
thx, for the 2 orinoco cards case, it is the same problem. 
The pccard on XP machine seems working well, while on the QNX target, the pccard seems to be in the idle state(since the
 two leds, should be one power and one signal, only get fired together with a period of 2-3 seconds).

But i mounted the orinoco on qnx with the full version tcpip stack. it should be working just as XP. I think this 
probably be the source of the sequencing problems -- undetermined connectivity. Though without tests, I believe that 
there would be no problems in two Xp machines. What's your opinions?

Thanks,
Eric

I know that the Orinoco driver works, so can you please start the driver
in verbose mode and send me the command line that you are using as well
as the output from 'sloginfo'.

Thanks.

thx, the scripts i used for starting the network:

	/proc/boot/devp-pccard -vvv ss -m
	waitfor /dev/pccard 59
	display "Configure the ns83815"
	io-net -d ns83815 -p tcpip stacksize=100000 -p qnet bind=en0
	waitfor /dev/io-net/en0 
	waitfor /dev/socket
	ifconfig en0 *.*.*.*netmask 255.255.0.0
	
	sleep 3
	display_msg "configuring adhoc network mode"
	mount -o channel=11,network=work,mode=adhoc -T io-net devn-orinoco.so	
	waitfor /dev/io-net/en1
	ifconfig en1 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0

the output of sloginfo is as attached, seemed sth wrong. thx again.

You are not specifying an ssid on your command line. That is why you are
not getting a connection.

Re: RE: RE: RE: Wanna eliminate the problems of WLAN btw QNX and XP machines   
Thanks, i have tried to specify ssid the same as the network, but still could not get connected. and i checked the doc 
of orinoco, ssid and network seems the same. Previously, if worked fine on the qnx machine, the signal led would keep 
flashing with relative high frequency.

Re: RE: RE: RE: Wanna eliminate the problems of WLAN btw QNX and XP machines   
Hi, Hugh.
I mounted the Orinoco card on a pure qnx laptop. Then tried the connection btw xp and qnx. The orinoco on qnx machine 
behaved almost the same as that on my pc104 target. 

However, when i configured the orinoco in the ap mode, i could surf the internet just as normal as that in xp machine. I
 don't know why this happens. Look forward to suggestions. thx.

I don't have any answers for you right now as I am rather busy. I will
set this up and try it as soon as I have a chance. I do know that it
works, as I have run it myself.

Eric,

I have verified that this problem exists with the Orinoco adapter, so if
you want to get it fixed, you will have to contact your support
representative, so that this problem will be routed through the correct
channels.

Thanks, Hugh.

Re: RE: RE: RE: RE: Wanna eliminate the problems of WLAN btw QNX and XP machines   
thanks very much, Hugh. Actually this information is so disappointed. The orinoco 802.11b PCCard is already phased out 
on the market. 
And i would like to confirm that this problem is only in the adhoc mode, right? 
And that would be really great if you could provide me with another similar network adapter available on the market. 
Thank you.

RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: Wanna eliminate the problems of WLAN btw QNX and XP machines   
Eric,

Yes, this is only a problem with adhoc mode. It is very difficult for us
to recommend wireless adapters, as the manufacturers are always changing
chipsets. If you can find adapters with Broadcom BCM43xx chipsets in
them, the devn-bcm43xx.so driver will support them.

Re: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: Wanna eliminate the problems of WLAN btw QNX and XP machines   
Sorry for late response, Hugh.

Actually, I am now using 6.3.2. Regarding the network card, the qnx website lists the supporting wifi cards, in which 
the broadcom includes 0x14E4, 0x4301, 0x4307, 0x4311, 0x4320, 0x4321, 0x4324, 0x4325.

As i checked from the broadcom website, currently only the model 0x4325 is available. Of course, they provide many other
 models, but i hope i could confirm with you that which model exactly will be working well in adhoc mode. Since i have 
no broadcom cards available at this time. Thanks again.

I think we don't support 0x4320. At least on io-pkt we don't support
0x4320 (cf PR 53039) and the bcm43xx driver on io-pkt was actually
ported from its counterpart on io-net which is defaultly running on nto
6.3.2.

Thanks

Thanks for reply. I checked the broadcom website, seems all the supporting products are chips instead of COTS wifi cards
. I do appreciate that you could provide me a list of pccards supporting adhoc mode in QNX632(pcmcia preferred). thx.

The only other wireless chipset that we support is the Agere Hermes2
chipset. I don't know whether this is still available.

Re: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: Wanna eliminate the problems of WLAN btw QNX and XP machines   
Dear Hugh,

I think the orinoco pc card work very well in adhoc mode in Xp machines. So is it possible that you could modify the 
current devn-orinoco.so so that it could also work under adhoc mode in QNX 6.3.2 targets? Thanks very much.

Best,
Eric

Eric,

I can't just do work without it being scheduled, so you will have to
make a formal application through your sales representative to get this
work done.

Hugh.
