Hello all, I'm having a devil of a time getting a sitecom usb wl-012 to work....ehh, it's driving me round the bend: Here's the sad story in a nutshell:
I connected and installed all the necessary stuf....the thing worked using "kismet" and scanned fine for networks, couldn't get it to set to ad-hoc mode though. I edited the /etc/wlan/ wlancfg-DEFAULT file to "IS_ADHOC=y" and it can be used after bringing up wlan0 with ifconfig. This did mean that kismet wouldn't run though.:( So being overly confident I stumbled into bridge-utils, installed and configurated it......got working it nicely too. Bridging went well..wonderfull:) Even kismet could be used and after "kismet_unmonitor" the bridge re-initialized:) Rebooted and for the life of me I can't get wlan0 to work again....not in the old settings nothing....except kismet that still works:( Anybody got any straws for me to clutch before I drown the damn thing....please??? The thing just blinks at me and it shouldn't, the light is steady if it works. Grrrrrrr!
