Re: [gentoo-user] eth1 wireless problem
Might want to look at using WPA for your wireless security. A lot harder to crack than WEP. On Friday, 2 June 2006 2:48, Michael W.

[gentoo-user] eth1 wireless problem
My wireless has been working fine, I don't think I even ran any updates yesturday, but this morning I get this /etc/init.d/net.eth1 start * Starting eth1 * Configuring wireless network for eth1 * eth1 connected to ESSID "ptfd" at 00:06:25:D9:DC:2F * in managed mode on channel 11 (WEP disabled) * Bringing up eth1 * 192.168.14.102 * 192.168.14.102 already taken on eth1 I don't get that last line, why is it reporting that the ip is already taken on eth1 when I am starting eth1? ifconfig shows no eth1 setup. I can run eth1 with dhcpcd and it gets a differernt ip, in teh same subnet, everything else seems fine. My eth1 wireless is set at teh static ip with /etc/conf.d/wireless, mostly due to using my system on several nets and vpn's and vmware, I just like the static ip's better, but can't figure this... here is teh applicable from my /etc/conf.d/wireless config_ptfd=( "192.168.14.102 brd 192.168.14.255 netmask 255.255.255.0") routes_ptfd=("default via 192.168.14.1") dns_servers_ptfd=( "68.87.72.130" "68.87.77.130" ) Any ideas are appreciated, I must be missing something... I have been suspending to ram lately, but this is with a fresh boot.. Mike -- Michael W.
