Problems with wireless

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I had wireless working well with ndiswrapper on FC4 on my laptop. I installed FC6 on other partitions, made an unsuccessful attempt to configure wireless with BCM43xx. When I rebooted into FC4, wireless had stopped working. I've tried unloading and reloading the module, deleting and reinstalling the driver. Nothing has seemed to work. One thing I find curious and I have illustrated below, I cannot change parameters with iwconfig. Can someone offer insight into what I might have done to screw up my wireless and what I can do to fix it? (The wireless network is working because my wife's PowerBook is working fine.)

Thanks!
