Wireless Net Static IP

[kintaro oe]

Gianluca,

Thanks for your advice..if i disable the networkmanger is it posible to enable the netplugd and add eth01 in the netplugd.conf so that it will be detected.my problem is eth1 - wireless, is cant be detected. so thats why i'm using networkmanager to get the driver. what do you think?

I tried to follow some advices found with google, but failed...

AFAIK NetworkManager does not support static addresses, so if you
really need this, the first step is to disable it.

then you can configure your wi-fi card with system-config-network but
there probably be additional configuration steps if you need WPA
encryption, since it is not supported out of the box by s-c-n



cheers,
