Public bug reported:
I am running Edgy, and I downloaded updates on 2006-10-01.
I have a 3com OfficeConnect USB wireless dongle which I am using to
connect to my 3com OfficeConnect router.
I have the zd1211 firmware files inside this directory:
/lib/firmware/2.6.17-10-generic/zd1211/
(and they are also all inside the parent,
/lib/firmware/2.6.17-10-generic/, which is where I found them
originally.)
When I start the machine, dmesg says:
zd1211rw 1-1:1.0: firmware version 4605
zd1211rw 1-1:1.0: zd1211 chip 6891:a727 v4330 full 00-12-a9 RF2959_RF pa0 g--
zd1211rw 1-1:1.0: eth1
usbcore: registered new driver zd1211rw
and then later:
ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth1: link is not ready
I am unable to ping the router or any outside sites.
The strange thing is that I was able (after much fiddling) to get this
working yesterday, but when I booted today it wasn't working!
/etc/network/interfaces looks like this:
iface eth1 inet static
wireless-essid AJB
wireless-key XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XX
address 10.0.1.7
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 10.0.1.1
(wireless key replaced with Xs)
This is exactly the same as when it was working yesterday.
using ifdown eth1 and then ifup eth1 doesn't help, and neither does
unplugging and reinserting the USB dongle.
Please do ask if you need more info. Apologies if I'm doing something
stupid.
Thanks, Andy
