[driverloader] Unable to connect to AP

[Linuxant support (Jonathan)]

Hi,

Could you please send at support at linuxant.com the output of 'dumpdiag'? 
Type the following in a root shell:

---
dldrconfig --dumpdiag
---

Just send us the generated file located in /tmp 
('driverloaderdiag.txt'). It'll help us solve the problem.

Regards,
