Need help getting my Atheros wireless card to work with madwifi on my
Computer running on Debian 1.2.6.18-5-486
The wireless gateway is currently working with other wireless laptops -
so I know the gw is operative.
I have used the Atheros cards on other computers - so the wireless cards
work.
Problem is No DHCPDISCOVER offers.[[BR]]
AND iwconfig shows Link Quality:0 Signal level:0 Noise
level:0 ??[[BR]]
wifi0 seems to be transmitting but not receiving....
Any ideas would be appreciated.
