Hi,

for the boot process problem, it is possible that this is the workaround 
we added to DriverLoader which is the source of the problem. However, 
this is not the likely cause of the problem and you can safely disregard 
these warning message(s).

For the "set mode : 8BD06 not supported." error message, please make 
sure that you have set the mode to "Managed" with the network 
configuration tool since you want to connect to an access point.

Since you can see the MAC address of your access point in the output of 
the 'iwconfig' command, it means that you are associated (connected) to 
the access point.

The source of the problem is probably that you are unable to send and/or 
receive packets with the wireless interface. You should make you that a 
valid license is installed with either the 'dldrconfig --info' command 
or with the Web Configurator.

If you require more assistance, please send to support at linuxant.com the 
output of the following commands entered in a root shell while you are 
close to the access point you are trying to connect to.

---
dldrconfig --info
cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1
iwlist eth1 scanning
ifdown eth1
ifup eth1
ifconfig -a
iwconfig
ip route
ip addr
cat /etc/resolv.conf
ping www.linuxant.com -I eth1 -c 5
ping 63.246.136.80 -I eth1 -c 5
tail -n 30 /var/log/messages
---

This information will help us locate the source of the problem.
