From: Paul Mooring > I can get the card to work as a wireless NIC, by that I mean I can > connect to my existing network, what I haven't been able to get working > is configuring to work as an AP, setting an essid, configuring WPA, ect. iwconfig eth1 mode Master (If that doesn't work, things will be difficult if not impossible. Some cards can't act as a master, like the ipw2200 in my laptop.) iwconfig eth1 essid "My_ESSID" ...your distro probably has layers and layers of scripts that read config files that have pointy-clicky ways to update that info. But most of the 802.11 configuration is done via iwconfig at some point. *NOT* WPA encryption, though, that's wpa_supplicant. -- Matt G / Dances With Crows The Crow202 Blog: http://crow202.org/wordpress/ There is no Darkness in Eternity/But only Light too dim for us to see --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
