Description yerenkow 2012-06-01 15:20:04 UTC
 I have lenovo s10-2 (which is have some unsupported broadcom wifi).
 I did replace wifi with
 ath0: <Atheros 5424/2424> mem 0x56100000-0x5610ffff irq 17 at device 0.0 on pci2
 ath0: AR2425 mac 14.2 RF5424 phy 7.0


 And weirdness begin.
 At my home I have wifi router in WEP mode. All devices/laptops are
 working just fine. But s10-2 is somehow get broken packets;
 fetch - got broken downloads (incorrect MD5, and sometimes say to me
 that length of file is invalid);
 wget - stops, saying something about MAC error.
 ssh - works fine while I simply use console (cd, ls) - can lasts
 hours.but! If I run mc, and starts something like copy/delete files
 (which heavily updates screen) - ssh drops connections with message
 packet error.
 browsing - pretty working (but not file downloads of course).

 At my workplace we using WPA with password. At work I can download
 packages,files,etc - all is OK with fine checksums.
 I happen to note this while testing PC-BSD 9.0, currently I'm on
 latest PC-BSD beta.


P.S. I have other lappy and few other devices in same WEP network, all is working.
