Hello,
I have recently bought a Inspiron 6000 laptop with an
Intel ProWireless 2200. Everything seems to running
fine but I am unable to access the internet via the
wireless card. It can ping the router and other
computers on the network but fails to ping anything
outside the router. I have set the defaultrouter in
rc.conf and the wireless card seems to be configured
correctly when I run ifconfig. Here is some output
from my laptop which will hopefully be of some use:
# ping -c5 192.168.1.1
