I set this up a while ago, but it's working and solid.
I'm using ipw-firmware version 2.3, software version ipw2200-1.0.4, and
wireless tools version 28.
Config in /etc/network/interfaces:
# Wireless netork
auto eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp
pre-up iwconfig eth1 essid "*************"
pre-up iwconfig eth1 mode managed
pre-up iwconfig eth1 channel 6
pre-up iwconfig eth1 key open **********
And that's about it! Installed on debian, so the config files shouldn't be
too different.
Sounds like your hardware might be suspect?
Cheers,
Steve
