I am getting bad packet length followed by disconnects a
lot.
This machine I am trying to log into is only accessible
through a wireless link originating from a Linksys WAP11.
I have googled and googled and googled and I still can't
figure out why this is happening. The drops are random,
but I don't ever get very far command wise. I don't get
vim up or cat any large files.
I saw something about login scripts that print messages
to the console crashing ssh, but I don't know if that
is accurate let alone pertinent. Slackware by default
prints messages to the terminal after I log in even
if I come in via ssh.
I wonder if the 2 wireless cards which are intended
to create 2 different wireless networks from this
server are interrupting each other? This server is
basically intended as a repeater and a camera box.
Note that I have Slackware 10.1 running on a wired
network booted system and I'm not having any problems
of this nature on that machine.
