You are correct, you don't seem to be running NDISWrapper. Actually the IPW2200 is probably the most mature Linux driver with full WEXT support and in most cases seems to work out of the box with Network-Manager. Can you run Network-Manager as shown here: http://live.gnome.org/DarrenAlbers/NetworkManagerFAQ#head-8f6f8d5923a8859b5ef88ce2158d50b48bee9614 and paste the output from a connection attempt? _______________________________________________ NetworkManager-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
