Check cable? 6.At this point ifconfig would only show an entry for lo Actual Results: wireless network was not available Expected Results: wireless network should be functional Additional info: Originally was using a Linksys WPC11 ver 1.02 card w/ orinoco_cs.o and had no problems. Had to replace wireless card New card is a Linksys WPC11 ver 3.0. and the only driver I have been able to find that supports this card is the prism2_cs.o Fixed problem by appying the following patch to /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/network-functions: ------------------- --- network-functions.orig +++ network-functions @@ -138,6 +138,8 @@ output=`LC_ALL=C /sbin/mii-tool $1 2>&1` if echo $output | grep -q "Operation not supported"; then return 1 + elif echo $output | grep -q "Function not implemented"; then + return 1 elif echo $output | grep -q "Invalid argument"; then return 1 elif echo $output | grep -q "link ok"; then -------------------
