Re: Atheros 42T0825 ubuntu 10.4
I have 60/10 connection, I don't think my old 10/100 linksys can handle those kind of speeds because I max out around 3.50 megabytes via wan port not wireless. Sorry the topic has changed since I found out that I could load tomato firmware on my old wrt54g v2. I was so ready to put the dlink aside f...

Re: Atheros 42T0825 ubuntu 10.4
So I i get around 3.58 megabytes. Does this router have a hardware limitation on the wan port? If this is the case this firmware won't do me any good.

Re: Atheros 42T0825 ubuntu 10.4
I noticed this tomato firmware is limiting my bandwidth, I have 60mb connection, and I am only getting less then 2mb per sec. Is there any configure I need to fix?

Re: Atheros 42T0825 ubuntu 10.4
So I was able to get the firmware loaded to my wrt54g. I set up up wireless bridge with my d link so I am going to test my atheros card.

Re: Atheros 42T0825 ubuntu 10.4
I still have my wrt54g, I stopped using it because some of the ports stopped working. I have one of the earlier aps, maybe I can put it back to use. Is tomato some kind of hacked firmware? I think I have a wrt54gv2

Are you not a fan of dlink? I had a similar problem with my linksys wrt54g way back when, that is one of the reasons I switched over.

Re: Atheros 42T0825 ubuntu 10.4
I didn't have many problems with the intel card, I only got the atheros card because I was planning on building a hackintosh. That project got scrapped and decided to give ubuntu another try. I don't know if its a driver thing or my AP is picky with the cards. I've had experience where certain AP di...

I am running into problems where I sporadically drop connections, the range isn't so great and at time it there is a delay connecting to websites.

Re: Just starting out - T60 - 10.6
I think there are some kexts file from bozilla kext package, that is causing the kernel panics. I am using some of the kexts from the Vanilla_10.6.2_t60p_2007cq8_pkg.zip. I am not sure if there is much difference between the T60 and T60p kext files. I want to find the correct basic kexts for the T60...

I ran into another kernal panic again, I did the -v like you mentioned before the gray boot up screen. I get a little boot: section in the lower left hand corner, but its not clear what I need to do from here.

Installed a atheros N card, now what?
I installed a atheros N card a few days ago, everything works fine, except I don't have a third antenna installed. Is the third antenna necessarily needed to use the card in N mode? I plan on getting another screen for my T60, should I just add the antenna when do a screen swap?
