After a reboot and without configuring the wireless interface,
iw dev eth1 scan
gives:
command failed: Network is down (-100)
and
iwlist eth1 scan
gives:
eth1 Interface doesn't support scanning : Network is down
I was trying to associate the wireless card using iwconfig:
iwconfig eth1 mode managed key <key>
iwconfig eth1 essid <essid>
but the card does not associate with the AP.
Isn't that supposed to work or am I missing something?
Buy the way, if I configure the wireless interface with yast
using WEP (the only way I can make the truemobile
card work) then iw dev eth1 scan gives:
