Hi everybody,

I'm testing on my own the latest LaFonera DD-WRT built (currently v24 Beta (03/07/07) std) and I have some weird problems.

When I try to switch off the wireless interface via telnet/ssh, the LaFonera does nothing - it accepts the command, but no response at all.

I've tried the following commands:

Code:

iwconfig ath0 power off essid off


Code:

wl_atheros radio off


Code:

wl_atheros off


And any combination of the commands above. The results are that the wl interface is still up and running.

I already know that DD-WRT on the LaFonera is still in beta, but can anybody help me?

Thanks in advance.
