The above is the correct access point.
I have set the key as:
iwconfig wlan0 key open hhhhhhhhhh
But it doesn't stick.
I have also run netcardconfig and set the key there and tried both static and DHCP.
Any suggestions?
Thanks |

Hi, on my installs ndiswrapper does not like having drivers for cards its not using installed, so I remove all drivers not needed using the nsdiswrapper -e "unwanted driver" where you fill in driver details as needed without quotes. I then modprobe ndiswrapper and use dhclient to get a connection, dunno if this is the recommended way but it works for me.

kstecek,
Thanks for the reply.
That didn't change anything on mine.
Is the entry fo NWID in netcardconfig required? It is the second entry.
If so, what is the input?

Zitat:
Is the entry fo NWID in netcardconfig required?
No, and I never use it.
man iwconfig:
Zitat:
nwid/domain
Set the Network ID (in some products it may also be called
Domain ID). As all adjacent wireless networks share the same
medium, this parameter is used to differenciate them (create
logical colocated networks) and identify nodes belonging to the
same cell.
This parameter is only used for pre-802.11 hardware, the 802.11
protocol uses the ESSID and AP Address for this function.
With some cards, you may disable the Network ID checking (NWID
promiscuous) with off (and on to reenable it).
Examples :
iwconfig eth0 nwid AB34
iwconfig eth0 nwid off

Things have gone downhill. Wireless card isn't able to get AP. I think there is unstable ndiswrapper and/or windows driver. On boot the hardware assignment listing shows wireless card to use IRQ 9. Last dmesg output shows ndiswrapper assigned to IRQ 10 for the wireless card driver. IRQ 10 is assigned to the Ethernet card.
I tried to set the IRO for wlan0 but, the response errored out. |

| Boot off the LiveCD to get a "standard" environment without ndiswrapper already installed. Maybe Kanotix has a suitable driver already built into the kernel. Then try to configure the card manually as described here: http://kanotix.com/index.php?name=PNphp ... 109#130109 |

I want to re-visit my WLAN problem. I think I am very close to getting it to work.
Ifconfig shpws packets both Rx and Tx. The Hwaddr matches the MAC address for the wireless card.
Iwconfig wlan0 hows the correct essid and the MAC of the router.
The network failed DHCP. I set a static IP, Gateway, WEP key, and DNS with lancardconfig.
Iwconfig wlan0 shows the Encryption Key: Off.
BIOS startup shows the wireless card to use IRQ 9.
Is there an interface between the CPU and PCI Buss that uses IRQ 10?
In other words does the card activate on 9 then, the PCI controller follows with 10 to the CPU.
I often make things harder than they are. Please help me find a simple answer to this one.
Thanks,
hitchup

First, using damn small linux (DSL) I was able to make the wireless card work. However, without WEP encryption. I added additional memory today and brought up kanotix and following the same commands as in DSL I having a working wlan that I am entering this post with.
Second, does anyone have tips for making WEP work?
Third, when working wireless card configuration remember that you are writing to hardware registers on the card and you can cause lock-ups that require power down and up in order to free the card and get back to where you were before the lock-up. The reset button will not get you there. |
