hello, I am running the 2.2.26 kernel and I'm trying to use the WMP54G. After some testing, I did find a driver that does not panic the kernel. I can set any parameters with iwconfig except for the essid which remains consistently blank. I did try to set the keys first, set it to ad-hoc, managed, etc, but without luck. I tried all kinds of permutations of setting keys, encryption, mode, etc. I tried the cvs version of ndiswrapper as well as the dist version Any suggestions? Thanks, Calin lspci says: 00:0a.0 Network controller: BROADCOM Corporation: Unknown device 4320 (rev 03) syslog says: ndiswrapper version 0.7+CVS loaded ndiswrapper adding bcmwl5.sys PCI: Found IRQ 9 for device 00:0a.0 PCI: Setting latency timer of device 00:0a.0 to 64 wlan0: ndiswrapper ethernet device 00:0f:66:1b:1a:78 using driver bcmwl5.sys :~# iwconfig wlan0 key s:aaaaa :~# iwconfig wlan0 essid foo iwconfig wlan0 wlan0 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:"" Mode:Managed Frequency:2.462GHz Access Point: FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF Bit Rate:54Mb/s Tx-Power:16 dBm RTS thr:2347 B Fragment thr:2346 B Encryption key:6161-6161-61 Security mode:restricted Power Management:off Link Quality:100/100 Signal level:-10 dBm Noise level:-256 dBm Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0 Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0 ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca |
