Dear List 

 

I am trying to install my Intel(R) PRO/Wireless on my fedora core system.  I
have installed the drivers

 

dmesg | grep ipw2200

 

ipw2200: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver, 1.2.0kmprq

ipw2200: Copyright(c) 2003-2006 Intel Corporation

ipw2200: Detected Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection

ipw2200: Detected geography ZZM (11 802.11bg channels, 0 802.11a channels)

 

I have also configured the device with the correct keys and ESSID

 

# Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection

DEVICE=eth1

ONBOOT=yes

BOOTPROTO=dhcp

HWADDR=00:0e:35:c2:93:ee

NETMASK=

DHCP_HOSTNAME=

IPADDR=

DOMAIN=

TYPE=Wireless

USERCTL=yes

IPV6INIT=no

PEERDNS=yes

ESSID=BTVOYAGER2110-6F

CHANNEL=1

MODE=Auto

RATE=Auto

 

 

KEY=s:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

 

When I reset the network I get 

 

Determining IP information for eth1... failed; no link present.  Check
cable?

 

and I my error log I get 

 

May 26 14:54:43 bilbo avahi-daemon[3231]: New relevant interface eth1.IPv6
for mDNS.

May 26 14:54:43 bilbo avahi-daemon[3231]: Joining mDNS multicast group on
interface eth1.IPv6 with address fe80::20e:35ff:fec2:93ee.

May 26 14:54:47 bilbo avahi-daemon[3231]: Leaving mDNS multicast group on
interface eth1.IPv6 with address fe80::20e:35ff:fec2:93ee.

May 26 14:54:47 bilbo avahi-daemon[3231]: Withdrawing address record for
fe80::20e:35ff:fec2:93ee on eth1.

 

How can I get it to recognise my wireless card and get my networking to
work?

 

Thanks I advance

 

Gordon Stewart
