From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; SunOS 5.7 sun4u) When you insert a Dell 1150 wlan card (uses the wvlan_cs module) it won't work. The activity light starts to blink like a madman when you try to get the IP address by DHCP. The solution is to make sure that iwconfig isn't run when you insert the card. I simply renamed my iwconfig to NOOT_iwconfig. This means that there is some problems in the /etc/pcmcia/wireless* files for that card. If iwconfig isn't run then everything works as it should. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Insert card. The module loads but then nothing happens. The card is detected but not working.
Humm sounds like you are picking up teh settings described in /etc/pcmcia/wireless.opts You may wish to alter them to be consistant with your current networking If that doesn't help, could you drop off the iwconfig ouput of the card when it's working and the iwconig output of when it's not working Cheers Phil =--=
