I keep seeing my wlan0 interface go down.. I suspected a faulty wifi
router.. i changed that out..
Ive tried using WEP and WPA. Currently using WPA.
Here are the logs Im seeing..
Dec 16 07:47:57 yeaguy wpa_supplicant[9492]: CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED - Disconnect event - remove keys

Given the errors seen what would be the best debug to use??
wlandebug or tcpdump ??
I went ahead and enabled since my logs are complaining about association
and authentication..
yeaguy# wlandebug -i wlan0 auth+assoc
net.wlan.0.debug: 0x0 => 0xc00000<assoc,auth>
yeaguy#
Any tips would be appreciated.. I have an end user continually complaining
of disconects over FTP..
Thanks,
justin v
