Well, in trying to get that wifi card of mine to work I had to screw around for ages with iwconfig, iwlist and iwpriv. Have a look at their man pages. Might just be a WPA support problem, if it can see the wireless networks and all. -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of m.roth@xxxxxxxxx Sent: 09 September 2009 14:44 To: General Red Hat Linux discussion list Subject: RE: CentOS and wireless, oh my > What chipset does you wireless card have? <snip> Atheros. The card's about 3.5 yrs old, and I was using the madwifi drivers. I see the ath5k driver loaded, but I get complaints about needing ath5k_pci, and am trying to find what rpm provides that. Oh, I tried installing wpa_supplicant, rpm claimed it was installed... but now it runs in daemon mode. No clue what had happened before. However, I still can't connect, though iw<whatsit> wlan0 scan finds the wireless with no trouble. Back to, do I use wext, or go for the ath5k driver? mark -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
