Hello,
Updated from F17 to F19 with a fresh install, and have hit a few
problems. The main one is that my wireless interface does not come up
(it is an Atheros AR9170 device).
i do not recall exactly when something similar was 'threaded', but it
was a problem of timing as to just what starts when.
awairc, solution was to start wlan last to give time for networking
time to finish configuring.
sound reasonable?
Other way round I would say :-)
wpa_supplicant must finish before the network starts, if it doesn't then
the wireless interface won't come up. This was a problem years ago
(Fedora 7 or so?) when the SYSV scripts started networking first, and
then wireless. The fix was, as said, to start wpa_supplicant first.
so you are saying that one has to have wireless networking before any
networking can be?
The association of the wifi network card with the router, yes. After
that networking can then set the interface as up or down. It cannot do
that before the association though (hence wpa_supplicant must run before
the network is started).
Obviously for wired networks, wpa_supplicant isn't going to do anything,
so networking will start up as usual (bringing interfaces up or leaving
them down).
so that _all_ point of confusion are clarified;
1 - networking working
/etc/sysconfig/
network
2 - wpa_supplicant [if using w-fi]
/etc/sysconfig/
wpa_supplicant
3a - wired [if using wired]
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/
ifup-eth
3b - wi-fi [if using wi-fi]
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/
ifcfg-wlanx
iirc, all 4 is how i go about it. ;=)
