RH9.0 and Wireless

[Jason Hecker]

Oh,

Drats.  I'll have to eat my words.  Using the RH9.0 network control panel util 
I can get the Cisco card talking to my AP using WEP - initially you set the 
mode to Auto, the rate to Auto and enter your WEP key as 
0xNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN not 0xNNNN-NNNN- etc. and set the essid too for 
your AP.

Bringing the interface up, iwevent will report the ESSID, WEP and rate were 
set OK and it should then say it's found the AP.

iwconfig reports it's connected to an AP, but no data is travelling across.  
The DLink AP SNMP util reports not much traffic is being received nor and 
ipconfig on my laptop is reporting tx errors.

So I am stumped.  It's almost there but still not working.  This is very 
frustrating as it just worked as proscribed in RH8.0

Grrr!
