Hi,

I have the latest knoppmyth and I am trying to go wireless with a Belkin usb stick that uses the zd1211b chip. I installed the latest version of the driver from zydas it comes up nicely.

However, I cannot connect to my wireless router. The signal from the router is strong but it doesn't seem to be able to communicate with it.

The only thing I can see that is not correct is the access point (ap) hardware address. Iwconfig shows 00:00:00:00:00:00. Trying to set the ap manually with iwconfig ethX ap 12:34:56:78:90 didn't work.

The channel number, the essid and other things are correct.

Not sure what to do from here. Any help appreciated.

Regards,

Dan Devost

can you see your ap with

Yes, I can see it and several others that belong to my neighbors. If I try "iwpriv ethX connect <Cell Number>",
the system crashes.

I would try upgrading the zd1211 driiver and wireless-tools

http://zd1211.ath.cx/
apt-get install wireless-tools

=======

iwconfig <iface> channel <ch>

for the channel that it thinks your ap is on.

I am using the zd1211 dirver in ad-hoc mode (no ap on my network)
