Re: [Bcm43xx-dev] Link LED not working on cardbus Linksys WPC54G
I'm still a no-go with this driver. I'm now using the kernel build #1928 released today for FC5, and I can only get as far as scanning. Larry suggested to me that I run a memory test...that's done (3 passes), and no errors were found. So, we're hoping someone on this list can add further insight - maybe somebody can explain the slab error, or messages related to 'sprom' in the kernel output... Among other things, I also notice that the LED indicator stays on while trying to connect, and turns off when not trying to connect - so I guess that's to be expected (given the topic that I chose to join-in on). Could it also be a problem with the firmware drivers that I installed using the fwcutter tool? The instructions for ndiswrapper indicated not to use the actual drivers distributed with the hardware, but find some drivers online that match the chipset. Should I instead turn to the default linksys-brand drivers? I guess I'll give that a try next... Here's what I get with ifconfig: eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:06:25:40:4C:53 inet6 addr: fe80::206:25ff:fe40:4c53/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:151 errors:0 dropped:129 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:167 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:9862 (9.6 KiB) TX bytes:9372 (9.1 KiB) Interrupt:10 Base address:0x4000 And with iwconfig: eth1 IEEE 802.11b/g ESSID:"mgl2" Nickname:"localhost.localdomain" Mode:Master Frequency=2.437 GHz Access Point: 00:0F:66:36:80:07 Bit Rate=54 Mb/s RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Encryption key:off and the info for my router from iwlist: Cell 03 - Address: 00:0F:66:36:80:07 ESSID:"mgl2" Protocol:IEEE 802.11bg Mode:Master Channel:6 Encryption key:off Bit Rate:54 Mb/s Extra: Rates (Mb/s): 1 2 5.5 6 9 11 12 18 24 36 48 54 Quality=100/100 Signal level=-31 dBm Extra: Last beacon: 276ms ago I'm getting a bunch of other routers detected, but all have weak signals, and since mine isn't even encrypted now, it shouldn't be an issue.

This is the message you get if the interface is down. Have you done an 'ifup eth1'? Check ifconfig for UP in the flags.
