There is a big issue with the IPW2200 firmware regarding encryption. One solution that often fixes peoples issues with this is as follows. I think Suse may already have this set, but it is defiantly important. As su do the following at the command line (if not already present): 1. pico /etc/modprobe.d/ipw2200 2. Add a line that reads (without the quotes), "options ipw2200 hwcrypto=0" 3. Save the file. 4. Restart your computer (just to keep it simple). Also, I've seen problems with these cards when Wireless Access Point is using a hidden ESSID. Make sure yours isn't hidden. Good luck!
