Hello, I have a problem with the broadcom wireless card (BCM4306 using b43). I'm can list the wireless ESSIDs with "iwlist scanning" command, but I'm can't connect in the LAN. My dhclient or dhcpcd can't receive an IP. When I set a static IP, I can't ping the gateway. Follows the output of the interesting commands: #ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr ####################### inet addr:192.168.0.200 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: ##################### Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:953 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:1055 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:750261 (732.6 KiB) TX bytes:178857 (174.6 KiB) Interrupt:220 Base address:0xe000 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:24 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:24 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:1648 (1.6 KiB) TX bytes:1648 (1.6 KiB) wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr ################### UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:11 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:7 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:3941 (3.8 KiB) TX bytes:2004 (1.9 KiB) wmaster0 Link encap:UNSPEC HWaddr ################ UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B) ------------------------------------------------------------------- #iwlist scanning lo Interface doesn't support scanning. eth0 Interface doesn't support scanning. wmaster0 Interface doesn't support scanning. wlan0 Scan completed : Cell 01 - Address: ##:##:##:##:##:## ESSID:"fastermangrate-on-song" Mode:Master Channel:11 Frequency:2.462 GHz (Channel 11) Quality=76/100 Signal level=-58 dBm Noise level=-127 dBm Encryption key:off Bit Rates:1 Mb/s; 2 Mb/s; 5.5 Mb/s; 11 Mb/s; 18 Mb/s 24 Mb/s; 36 Mb/s; 54 Mb/s; 6 Mb/s; 9 Mb/s 12 Mb/s; 48 Mb/s Extra:tsf=00000051a4c1557d ------------------------------------------------------------------- #dhclient wlan0 There is already a pid file /var/run/dhclient.pid with pid 3239 killed old client process, removed PID file Internet Systems Consortium DHCP Client V3.1.1 Copyright 2004-2008 Internet Systems Consortium.
