Hi,
I've managed to get ndiswrapper working happily now, but I'm having
problems configuring the card. Currently, I have
in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts the following for ifcfg-wlan0
IFV6INIT=no
ONBOOT=yes
USERCTL=yes
PEERDNS=yes
GATEWAY=
TYPE=wireless
DEVICE=wlan0
HWADDR=
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
NETMASK=
DHCP_HOSTNAME=
IFADDR=
DOMAIN=
ESSID=<myssid>
CHANNEL=1
MODE=Managed
NETWORK_TYPE=g
RATE=Auto
with
KEY=s:xxxxxxxx
in keys-wlan0
When I do /sbin/ifup wlan0, it fails to give me an IP address for the
network card
iwconfig wlan0 shows
wlan0 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:off/any Nickname:"T7.Linux"
Mode:Auto Frequency:2.412 GHz Access Point:
Not-Associated
Bit Rate:54 Mb/s Tx-Power:20 dBm Sensitivity=0/3
RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Encryption key:454C-5855-444B-4A45 Security mode:restricted
Power Management:off
Link Quality:100/100 Signal level:5/154 Noise level:160/154
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
Any ideas on how to fix this?
If it helps, x86_64 kernel, using the 64 bit windows drivers for the
RTL8185 chipset connecting to Sky Broadband (UK ISP). I'm on rawhide
with ndiswrapper 1.47 installed.
TTFN
Paul
