Hello, Here is more information about the system.
Her's is a Compaq 702TU laptop. It comes with broadcom 4311 chipset. The wireless was configured with NDISWrapper and firmware upgraded using bcm43xx-fwcutter. The installation process was documented here <http://www.zyxware.com/articles/2007/11/26/laptops/installing-ubuntu-compaq-c702tu-laptop> The system was tested for both WPA and WEP access at our office. But right now when I make her try iwlist scanning is giving No Scan Results The Network Manager applet was not showing the signal strength icon until roaming mode was enabled for the wireless device. When roaming mode is enabled the Network Manager applet shows "Connect to other wireless Network" where you can enter the ssid of the network and the encryption type and key but no IP address. There is no DHCP server in the network. But you cannot enter static IP while in roaming mode. Even with roaming mode enabled the scanning results are in the negative. This is the current status.
