I've constantly experienced the same issues. The XO-1 can't sometimes connect to my AP and the signal is always very weak compared to all other wireless devices I have - the XO 1.5 has a much stronger signal, for instance.<div>
It has always been this way and I have it almost for two years now, independent if I have Gentoo or XO OS installed, for all versions.</div><div><div><br></div><div>Best regards,</div><div>Tiago<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

</div>I was troubleshooting a situation where at least two XO-1 systems would<br>
only rarely associate with an AP (and often had no 'eth0'). Despite<br>
trying everything under the sun, I could never determine the cause.<br>
<br>
>From my experimenting, whether I had mesh enabled or not did not make a<br>
difference in this. I have since reflashed those systems with newer<br>
builds - and am no longer seeing the "missing 'eth0'" situation.<br>
Perhaps the software in the problem systems had gotten corrupted.<br>
<br>
<br>
What I __still__ cannot depend upon is for every XO-1 to reliably<br>
associate with an AP. A symptom that I frequently observe is that<br>
'iwlist eth0 scan' (as root) does not show the radio signals that other<br>
XO_1s do show. [Wireless debug trace shows the scan is being invoked.]<br>
Looks to me that I will be spending lots more time pursuing "how come".<br>
<br>
<br>
Bernie, thank you for your help, mikus<br>
