hi, i have placed the proper firmware files in the proper folder. now i'm able to configure a wireless device with the ipw2200. but when i try to activate it i get this error:
Error for wireless request "Set Bit Rate" (8B20) :
SET failed on device eth1 ; Operation not supported.
Determining IP information for eth1... failed; no link present. Check cable?
i do not have any kind of encryption system on my router.
this is my ifcfg-eth1:
/etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth1 # Please read /usr/share/doc/initscripts-*/sysconfig.txt # for the documentation of these parameters. IPV6INIT=no ONBOOT=yes USERCTL=no PEERDNS=yes GATEWAY= TYPE=Wireless DEVICE=eth1 HWADDR=00:12:f0:42:e4:79 BOOTPROTO=dhcp NETMASK= DHCP_HOSTNAME=Morpheus IPADDR= DOMAIN= ESSID= CHANNEL=1 MODE=Managed RATE='0 kb/s'
and this is my iwconfig summary: [root@Morpheus ~]# iwconfig lo no wireless extensions.
eth0 no wireless extensions.
eth1 unassociated ESSID:off/any Nickname:"Morpheus"
Mode:Managed Channel=0 Access Point: 00:00:00:00:00:00
