'Network is down' - 'ifconfig wlan1 up' first... also make sure NetworkManager/wpa_supplicant are down, as they interfere with manual operation like these - you should do *either* iwconfig/iwlist *or* networkmanger/wpa_supplicant but not both. --- On Sat, 30/1/10, Dani Gutiérrez

It isn't that much of a hack - the ifconfig is fairly standard for manually starting a network interface - if you go manual, you have to do ifconfig/iwconfig/iwlist all the way. Sure ifconfig is a very usual command. But in this thread I've learned that is ifconfig who, in some usb cards,

Hmm, do you really need the echo part? current wireless-testing/compat-wireless already have the 083a:e501 id. --- On Sun, 10/1/10, Dani Gutiérrez jdani...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, I'm trying to use a wifi usb device in Kubuntu Karmic (9.10). Info of the hardware system: * lsusb ID 083a:e501
