B-4
00100000 Unassigned.
00080000 Unassigned.
00040000 Unassigned.
00020000 Internal error. May occur on some cards in conjunction with other described
error codes.
00010000 The 802.11 card in use is not compatible with the regulatory region to which
the unit has been programmed.
00008000 Internal error.
00004000 Internal error. May occur on some cards in conjunction with authentication or
association failures, or other configuration mismatches.
00002000 Received an 802.11 packet that was too large to be handled.
00001000 Internal error.
00000800 Failed to queue a data packet that could not be sent immediately for later
transmission. It was dropped.
00000400 Internal error.
00000200 Failed to find, sync to, and associate with an AP or ad-hoc network within a
reasonable time. Most likely there is no AP or ad-hoc network within range
that satisfies the unit's ESSID, NETWORK-TYPE, and CHANNEL
parameters.
00000100 Received an 802.11 data packet that was not encapsulated as per RFC1042 or
802.1h. Unit will still decapsulate and interpret the packet. Some vendors'
APs trip this error when they send out "magic packets" containing proprietary
extensions not defined by the 802.11 spec.
00000080 Received an 802.11 data packet encapsulated in a completely foreign manner,
or not encapsulated at all. Unit will still attempt to interpret the packet, but
proper interpretation is not guaranteed. The packet may be dropped as
unintelligible.
00000040 Received an encrypted packet that could not properly be decrypted. Packet
was dropped.
00000020 Unspecified error during packet reception. At least one packet was dropped.
Absence of this error bit does not imply that all packets have been received
correctly, however.
00000010 A received packet failed CRC check and was dropped.
00000008 Internal error. May occur in conjunction with "no AP or ad-hoc network
within range" errors.
