My ADSL modem is Siemens SL2_141. I kept the wireless setting there like: Basic --> Enable Wireless --> (checked) SSID --> ddnet Country --> India Enable Wireless Guest Network --> (unchecked) Security --> Select SSID --> (ddnet) Network Authentication --> Open WEP Encryption --> Disabled In my 'system-config-network' in the laptop I have kept the settings like this: wlan0 --> Activate device when computer starts Automatically obtain IP address --> DHCP Automatically obtain DNS Information --> (checked) Wireless Settings Mode --> Auto Network Name --> Specified --> ddnet Channel --> 1 Transmit rate --> Auto Key --> (nothing) I have tried the Network name --> (Auto) too, with the same results. -- das ddts.randomink.org -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
