I've tried everything to get the wireless connection to work, It seems
so close but I just can't get it
it's a 01:0a.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B
Mini PCI Adapter (rev 04)
as reported from lspci
. in a Toshiba A10 running a latest and freshly updated 7.04 Feisty
iwconfig says
lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.
eth1 IEEE 802.11b ESSID:"XXXMy Access pointXXX"
Nickname:"ipw2100"
Mode:Managed Frequency:2.437 GHz Access Point: "XXMAC
address for the LANXXX"
Bit Rate=11 Mb/s Tx-Power:16 dBm
Retry limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Power Management:off
Link Quality=100/100 Signal level=-39 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
it cirrectly finds my access point and picks up the MAC address for the
LAN
The access point log file says Wireless pc connected and logs the MAC
address for the ipw2100 then reports Packet Dropped frpm 0.0.0.0:0
0.0.0.0:0 with IP with zero length
The access point has 3 MAC addresses the LAN, WAN and Wireless.
iwconfig finds the LAN, whereas it seems to me it should find the
wireless MAC address. Can anyone comment on this?
Any help or advice would be really appreciated. Sometimes Network Manager shows
the orbiting comets (with only the lower one in green) sometimes I get the bar
graph which turns blue when the access key is entered and reports 100%
connected when the mouse hovers but I can't ping the access point or connect to
the network or internet on anything other than a cable connection (which works
just fine)
Many thanks to all who have contributed to this truly amazing cooperation
Cheers
Andy
