So you have a machine with a wireless NIC that doesn't connect... Please provide more info: Output of lspci Output of dmesg What chipset NIC is it? Output of iwconfig and ifconfig And talk to the network people and ask for the WPA key and details. Its unlikely to be just WEP.
BTW WPA also requires wpasupplicant to be running, to handle the background key changes. -----Original Message----- From: Andy Leach [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, 16 October 2006 10:19 p.m. To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Linux in a M$ DHCP world I set up the work one today, which was just as trivial to do up to one point. The network is wireless and, while the card is recognised, I can't access anything on the lan, I can't ping anything local or remote either. I have the WEP(?) Key entered and DHCP selected but nothing is happening. Google's not giving me much, apart from disabling eth0 - which I'll try tomorrow.
