Turning Wireless Radio on and off: how?

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



Hi all,

I've got a Dell Inspiron 1501 with a Broadcom 1390 Wlan mini card (integrated) wireless lan chipset. I've got an init script setup to activate the wireless connection at boot time, however when the system boots the adapter doesn't connect. I'm not able to get a connection until after the desktop is done loading and I run the script from the command line.

After some log review apparently as the system is booting the radio for the wireless lan card is "off", so I need to know how to turn the wireless radio on just before the init script for the adapter fires off.

How can I turn on/off the wireless lan radio?

I'm using ndiswrapper and the dell windows driver for this wireless card.


thanks,

Mark
