Hello all! I just aquired an IBM Thinkpad X31 laptop and have to work out the wireless (amongst other things). The firmware (firmware-ipw2x00) and drivers are installed and working (I think).
dojo:~# lspci | grep -i wireless 02:02.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI Adapter (rev 04) I'm using wicd from the lenny-backports since I had very good experiences with wicd on my other machines. However, if I try and connect to my wireless - WPA-TKIP, Mixed mode (B and G) - I keep getting the message: "Connection failed: Could not contact the wireless access point." I'm positive the WAP is up and running since I'm writing this here from my other machine through it. Syslog contains some dhclient messages that look like this: 00:57:52 dhclient: Listening on LPF/eth2/00:04:23:96:55:2a 00:57:52 dhclient: Sending on LPF/eth2/00:04:23:96:55:2a 00:57:52 dhclient: Sending on Socket/fallback And that's all that sticks out to me... Any hints/tips/clues much appreciated, let me know if you need any more info. TIA, Sebi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
