Hi All!
I have been having trouble using the ipw-firmware port. I am able to
get it up and running, and it is even associated to my wireless
network. I use dhclient to get a lease and set everything up, which
works fine (this is after I enter the encryption and stuff).
The problem is when I try to ping or access any other IP address, even
my router I'm connected to. Just pinging my router yields no results.
I have loaded wlan_wep and provided the correct key (tried retyping
the key several times) to make sure I provided that portion correctly.
I also tried disabling wep in my router to make sure it was not a
problem with the wlan_wep module.
Here's a dump of ifconfig ipw0
ipw0: flags=8847<UP,BROADCAST,DEBUG,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet6 fe80::204:23ff:fe6b:37ad%ipw0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x5
inet 192.168.0.2 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255
ether 00:04:23:6b:37:ad
media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect (DS/11Mbps)
status: associated
ssid JONNET channel 11 bssid 00:09:5b:6a:ad:bc
authmode OPEN privacy ON deftxkey 1 wepkey 1:104-bit txpowmax 100
bintval 100
I tried specifying the debug option, but I do not where I will get the
output (could not find a specified log file).
I was wondering what other information I may need to provide to help
in troubleshooting this issue or if anyone knows what is going on.
Thanks,
Jonathan Herriott
