Hi Daniel, Sorry, of course I should have included more information about the network configuration. Here is the entry in /etc/network/interfaces:
auto wlan0
allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet static
address 192.168.1.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.1
wireless_essid harrinet
wireless_mode managed
wireless_rate auto
wireless_key XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX key on
wireless_encryption restricted
pre-up iptables-restore < /etc/iptables.up.rules
Obviously the essid is set. The same setup works for
zd1211-rev80 without problems.
The USB driver zd1211rw and its dependencies are loaded by
udev, as soon as I plugin the network dongle (WL-430U). With
"there is no MAC" I mean that iwconfig doesn't show the MAC
of the wireless switch. AFAIK this indicates that this is a
low level problem, independent of WPA, WEP, or some iptables
rules.
Regards
Harri
