Same problem here with that network card. I am using an HP Compaq
nx7400. The wireless button LED is on.
I am configuring a network with a given ESSID and WEP hex key using
network manager. The AP is hidden, and since is our company's wireless
network, I can't unhide it.
We have two cases here I am trying to isolate.
Case 1) Despite the interface gets a valid configuration (addresses for
DNS servers and gateway are correct; interface IP, netmask and broadcast
addresses are correct, too), I can't even ping the gateway (ping results
in an "Destination host unreachable" error).
Case 2) the network interface doesn't even get a valid address
Doing a /etc/init.d/networking restart makes the wireless interface
usable
Please ask me anything useful to solve this bug (files, command
outputs...) and I'll be happy to help.
Ciao
