I am able to detect wifi zones but not join them.
At least you know the driver is correctly installed
In my interface file shouldnt there be a section on hotplugging ?. Dont I need a section on eth2
If you want your wireless network to be brought up on boot then you need an entry for eth2 in /etc/network/interfaces. A hotplug entry is only useful if you're switching your radio on and off or if it's a PCMCIA card that you regularly plug in and remove. I don't know if Debian has existing scripts which will magically invoke the 'ifup' tool to configure/remove interfaces as they're removed. Exactly what you need to do to connect your wireless gizmo depends a bit on exactly what gizmo it is (there are a few different tool sets around) and what authentication you're using - WPA-PSK is OK for most home use; businesses should prefer TKIP. So, what gizmo do you have? "lspci -v" might help you. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
