Atheros AR5001+ and Intel 3945ABG [Golan].
I'm trying to do an ad-hoc network to share Internet under PPP (usb modem ZTE MF 622) between a desktop and a laptop.
The Desktop is connected to Internet under 3G modem using pppd or wvdial.
The Desktop is the card: Atheros AR5001X + Wireless.
The laptop is the card: Intel PRO / Wireless 3945ABG [Golan].
In Windows XP (Desktop) <-> Windows Vista (Laptop) everything works perfect, but with Linux can not connect at all, nor with the Arch (Laptop) <-> Windows XP (Desktop) or to the Arch (Desktop) <-> Windows Vista (Laptop).
I tried many drivers and documentation on the Internet, as the following:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wireless_Setup
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sha … _interface
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/WEP
And many others, but still do not understand very well how to run the scripts and the system of wireless networks in the Arch.
The error is that the Desktop is as follows:
:: Starting Network [BUSY]
Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06):
SET failed on device ATH0; Invalid argument.
> Could not associate ATH0 - try increasing WIRELESS_TIMEOUT and network check
WEP is or has no security
Already in the laptop does not appear any error, but it does not connect.
Here settings for Desktop:
