This might be helpful. After screwing around with the network settings
all day between the two setups, I noticed that the frequency setting is
different on the network card on the different boots. "iwconfig" shows
this on the Jaunty boot (which works):
eth1 IEEE 802.11b ESSID:"Goesh" Nickname:"HERMES I"
Mode:Managed Frequency:2.412 GHz Access Point: 00:60:B3:CD:DA:EE
Bit Rate:2 Mb/s Sensitivity:1/3
Retry limit:4 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Power Management:off
Link Quality=23/92 Signal level=-74 dBm Noise level=-97 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:154 Rx invalid frag:419
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
The "iwconfig" for when it doesn't work looks like this:
eth1 IEEE 802.11b ESSID:""
Mode:Managed Frequency:2.422 GHz Access Point: None
Bit Rate:11 Mb/s Sensitivity:1/0
Retry limit:8 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Power Management:off
Link Quality=0/70 Signal level=-122 dBm Noise level=-122 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:1
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
I attempted to change the freq or channel, but was told the device was
busy. The network was not connected to anything. I tried shutting it
down (ifconfig eth1 down), but was still unable to change the frequency.
Any ideas? Might this be the problem? Any help will be greatly
appreciated. Thanks!
