Thank for the help Naga, it has unfortunately not helped my situation.
I have attached a console log of the iwconfig command along with the
date to show how far apart I ran the command. This will hopefully help
to show what is going on.
I also forgot to mention that I am running a fresh install of Gentoo
2005.0, installed on saturday this weekend.
Thanks for any responses.
