Hi,
I have a dell 5100 with a dell 1150 wireless card. The card worked
under Mandrake, but I cannot get it to work with Debian testing (2.6.7-2
kernel). Iwconfig produces:
eth2 IEEE 802.11-DS ESSID:"Admin-Wireless" Nickname:"HERMES I"
Mode:Managed Frequency:2.457GHz Access Point: 44:44:44:44:44:44
Bit Rate:2Mb/s Tx-Power=15 dBm Sensitivity:1/3
Retry limit:4 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Encryption key:XXXXXXXXXXXX
Power Management:off
Link Quality=0/92 Signal level=134/153 Noise level=134/153
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
wavemon shows the card, but i am not connected. I have checked the
password and ESSID with the lan admin and they are correct. Any ideas
on how to troubleshoot this are appreciated. I do not think I need to
recompile the kernel because I can see the card.
cheers,
ski
