Broadcom bcm43xx problems

2006-02-24 Thread Hans
Hello all, 

I am looking for two solutions with wireless cards. I have a Broadcom bcm4318 
and a realtek rtl8169. 


- How can I force to use eth0 for the wlan-card, and eth1 for the 
hardwired-card ? I use udev, so sometimes theezh0 and eth1 changes at 
starting. Hardwired shall have a fixed IP, wlan shall get the ip with dhcp.

- How can I force to use 11MBit on the wlan-card. The wlan-card originally 
always is using 54MBit. This my entry in  /etc/network/interfaces, but this 
does not work:

# The primary network interface
auto eth0 eth1

iface eth0 inet dhcp
  wireless-essid myssid
  wireless-channel 6
  wireless-key X
  wireless-mode managed
  wireless-rate 11M---  This should change the rate

iface eth1 inet static
address xxx.xxx.xxx.y
netmask yyy.yyy.yyy.z
network xxx.xxx.xxx.0
broadcast xxx.xxx.xxx.255
gateway xxx.xxx.xxx.x

Best regards 

Hans

i think something like this was discussed earlier...

this won't allow you to have it eth0 and eth1, however this shouldn't 
matter:
