Hi, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I been trying to connect my laptop to a wireless router but without success. |
| 4 |
The router is a common Linksys WRT54G. My pcmcia card is also a Linksys |
| 5 |
WPC54G. |
| 6 |
I am now using a new driver (bcm43xx), instead of ndiswrapper, but I think |
| 7 |
the problem is not from that. I did use my card with this new driver |
| 8 |
successfully before. |
| 9 |
The problem arises at the authentication stage. |
| 10 |
Somehow, I can't associate or authenticate with the damn router. |
| 11 |
Although stupid, I've tried with encryption enable/disable, DHCP server |
| 12 |
enable/disable and many other things that I can change in the router setup. |
| 13 |
Nothing seems to work. I could almost say I've tried everything. |
| 14 |
With a ether cable, works fine! |
| 15 |
And there is other laptop (running windows) connected via wireless to the |
| 16 |
router without any problem. |

The following is what shows up in dmesg: |

| 55 |
|
| 56 |
Does anyone know what can be wrong? |
| 57 |
Or what can I try to do? |
| 58 |

Thanks, |
