| Hello,
I have been trying to get my wireless working on redhat for about a week
now. I am having all sorts of problems. I have an Apple Airport as a base
station using 128-bit WEP. On the client end (linux computer), I have Dell
Insiron 2500 with a Dell Truemobile 1150 card. I installed redhat with the
card in the computer. It detects it as there, but I can't get it working.
First, when I tried, it said that it couldn't set the mode and frequency.
Then (only once), I got it to detect my AP, but it said something about the
key (which is a hex key I got off my mac using the "Network Password
Equivalent" thing. I tried using 0x(key) and without the 0x. Then I became
frustrated and turned off the encryption, but it wouldn't take an IP address
even when detecting the AP. I then tried using ifconfig to set an ip,
gateway and netmask, and I also tried the graphical config. I tried
connecting to the AP in both the graphical and command line versions. I am
having a hell of a time and want to get online asap.
Thanks,
Robert
