Hello, I have just recently started having an issue with my wireless connection on my Thinkpad. I am afraid that this might be a hardware problem, but I thought someone else might have seen this as well.
The wireless nic is an ipw2100. Sometimes I lose the ability to connect to my smtp and nntp servers. I can connect to http, but anything else gives me dns lookup errors. If I bring the interface down and then back up, it does not help, but restarting the access point before ifdown/ifup will set things straight for a bit. I first thought it was the access point, but if I use my wavelan pcmcia card everything works fine with no need to restart the AP. I am using the 1.3 version of the firmware on a 2.6.15-1-686 Debian kernel on testing. Thanks for any insight. Pointers to relevant information is always welcome. -- Robert D.
