anotheruser, excellent post. When I get home I will try the iwconfig command as my experience with the WiPi RaLink dongle is similar to yours. What is the command to list the Rt chipset and Rf chipset ? Steen, in your excellent web page under WiFi Settings clicking the "Submit" box will list iwconfig, I think displaying the iwconfig info at the bottom of the page after the "Available WiFi networks" would be useful. Also, could you display the info that anotheruser showed? - the first 3 or 4 lines that detail the chipset in the dongle would complement the iwconfig info. A camel is a racehorse designed by a committee. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Wirrunna's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3225 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97803 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
