My Edimax EW-7108pcg PCMCIA wifi card (rt2500 driver) works perfectly in
my constantly upgraded version of Etch (Testing). I installed the rt2500
driver some weeks ago. The same driver, built in the same way (with
Module Assistant), will not work in a fresh install of Etch in a new
partition on the same machine (Thinkpad T20).
In both cases I built the rt2500 module from the rt2500-source package
using module assistant. The resulting modules package is the same
on each system:
rt2500-modules-2.6.17-2-686 version 1.1.0+cvs20060620-3+2.6.17-9
The probelm seems to lie in the file
/etc/Wireless/RT2500STA/RT2500STA.dat.
The older working install contains the line 'AuthMode=OPEN', but this is
'AuthMode=SHARED' in the broken fresh install.
I can get the card to work either by modifying
/etc/Wireless/RT2500STA/RT2500STA.dat with a text editor (setting
AuthMode to OPEN), or by adding these lines to /etc/network/interfaces:
pre-up ifconfig eth1 up
pre-up iwpriv eth1 set AuthMode=OPEN
There is a niggle though: bringing the interface down (ifdown eth1) now
gives an error:
Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) :
SET failed on device eth1 ; Function not implemented.
rt2500 and X are not installed. There is more detail in this thread:
