So I suggest that you use static addresses or a DHCP client that doesn't bring the interface down. Please check iwconfig output. In particular, please see "access point" and "link quality". If the later is 0, there is no association. If there is no association, no IP packets can go through. Try reestablishing the association by setting ESSID with iwconfig while the interface is up. Also please see the kernel log for possible signs of trouble. It's shown by the "dmesg" command. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
