Thanks, it works now! I had to set the essid with sudo iwconfig set essid MyWlanName. Then do a sudo dhclient to get a dhcp connection. Perhaps not surprising, but:
Previously this was made automatically by a configuration option wireless-essid in /etc/network/interfaces, but it doesn't seem to have an effect with the zd1211rw driver. Also I have specified iface eth1 inet dhcp, but that doesn't seem to do it. Also I have problems with starting the driver automatically at startup. I've put zd1211rw last in /etc/modules. I have to unplug the usb stick before rebooting, and plug it in again after Linux has loaded, else it fails: USB control request for firmware upload failed. Error number -110. I suspect this has to do with zd1211rw being loaded too early in the process, but I don't know to fix it. What is the proper way to load the modules, is /etc/modules the right thing? But the driver seems to work fine! Don't know how formal tests are required, but I suggest adding {USB_DEVICE(0x13b1, 0x0024), .driver_info = DEVICE_ZD1211B} to zd_usb.c /Henrik Hjelte On Fri, 2006-12-15 at 22:57 -0500, William Keaney wrote: > Mine does this when it has not associated properly with the AP. > Notice that the output if 'iwconfig' says "Access Point: Invalid". > Are you using encryption on your AP?
