Hi guys,
I have an EEE1000 and I'm having problems getting the wireless to work.
Symptoms are:
driver loads, ra0 wireless device appears.
iwlist scan works:
ra0 Scan completed :
Cell 01 - Address: 00:09:5B:3F:E2:BB
ESSID:"milton"
Mode:Managed
Channel:1
Quality:50/100 Signal level:-70 dBm Noise level:-97 dBm
Encryption key:on
Bit Rates:11 Mb/s
but when I set the essid and key using iwconfig (it's WEP) iwconfig
doesn't reflect this change:
ra0 RT2860 Wireless ESSID:"" Nickname:"RT2860STA"
Mode:Auto Frequency=2.412 GHz Bit Rate=1 Mb/s
RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Encryption key:off
Link Quality=10/100 Signal level:0 dBm Noise level:-97 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
and trying to dhclient doesn't work.
I'm using the ra2860-source package from your repo installed using
m-a a-i against linux-image-2.6.25-2-686 on lenny.
dmesg shows:

I was hoping someone might have some ideas, given that I'm told people
definitely have it working.
Thanks,
Matt
