I've just started up my laptop, and issued the command: #wificonfig -i ipw0 getparam radio
It returns: radio: off as expected. I cannot see any option on my desktop to switch on my radio as suggested by Cecilia. I then issued the command: #svcadm enable physical:nwam As I found before this lights up the "wireless" light on my laptop. #wificonfig -i ipw0 getparam radio now returns: radio: on #wificonfig -i ipw0 connect homenet Now waits for a few seconds and comes back with: wificonfig: failed to connect to profile 'homenet' As mentioned I've had this working on other hardware (and conversely this hardware working on Fedora) so I am confident I have my network, wep key, etc. set up correctly and that the hardware is not broken. It seems OpenSolaris just doesn't work with this hardware. :( Andrew.
