The objective of using this tool is to help quantify the level of coverage done on each ipw2100 and ipw2200/2195 release, and allow the community to contribute to the testing. More testing hands will help the project get more "stable" releases out more often.
To help with testing the latest version of the ipw2100 or ipw2200/2195 driver, go to http://bughost.org and click on the "Run Tests" link at the botton.

The goal of the validation effort for the Intel PRO/Wireless 2100/2200 drivers for Linux is to ensure that we can state how much testing has been performed and what the quality risks are based on the testing. Community testing and input will be greatly leveraged in order to determine this information.
Our goals are:
- Test new functionality as soon as it is available in the driver.
- Enhance test plan to give us an understanding of what is needed to fully test the driver, and determine how much testing has been performed on each version of the driver.
- Automate as many test plans as possible.
- Run a basic automated test suite against each build of the driver to ensure basic functionality is present.
The outline of a test plan against the major functional areas in the driver is available here (testplan.txt).
The tests cover these functional areas:
- Infrastructure Mode
- Infrastructure Mode
- Ad-hoc Mode
- SSID scan
- Power Management
- AP to AP roaming
- WLAN Extension Support, including iwconfig, iwpriv, iwspy
- WEP
- 802.1X Basic Tests Thanks Terry Simons. (Also, a really useful document by Crystal Xiong and Yan Nan is this XSupplicant and freeRadius HOWTO)
- Install
- Rate scaling
- Fragmentation Tests
- Data transfer
- Monitor mode
- WPA/WPA2 (also check out this WPA/WPA2 HOWTO document - by Salwan Searty - that helps you setup wpa_supplicant configurations: WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK, WPA-EAP PEAP, WPA-EAP TLS, WPA-EAP TTLS/CHAP, WPA-EAP TTLS/MSCHAP, WPA-EAP TTLS/PAP.)
Our goal is to gather results from running the ABAT against as many Linux
OSDs and hardware types as possible. If you'd like to help, feel free to
download the script from:
http://www.bughost.org/ipw/validation/abat/ABAT.txt
and mail your results as well as hardware vendor and model, version of
driver tested against, and OS/version used to
Salwan Searty.
Results of running ABAT against each build of the IPW2200 driver are shown here page.
Test results can be found here
Test results can be found here
802.1x, WEP, WLAN Extensions, Data Transfer, Power Management and regression tests were run against build 0.8. Results can be found here. General Comments: shared key, S-state, setting mode, setting rate, fragmentation, ad-hoc, and monitor mode not yet supported.
