I'm running an HP OmniBook 4150B with 4.7-STABLE on it (about two
weeks old sources or so). I have a Linksys WPC11, revision 3 802.11b
card which gets along just fine with my Linksys 802.11g AP, using
64-bit WEP.
The office is another story. I've checked and checked and checked
the WEP key (different key, also 64-bit), and although dstumbler can
report signal strengths, and the card associates with the AP, *and*
tcpdump shows all the layer 2 and 3 traffic you could want, dhclient
cannot acquire an address for it.
The office APs are made by Agere Systems (Lucent internals), and
other users with Linksys WPC11's can connect just fine.
Anyone know what's wrong? Neither google nor searching the
mailing lists provided an answer.
(While I'm on the subject, is there a "right" way to set up
wicontrol so that it picks up your WEP keys at startup time, or do you
have to roll your own script, e.g., /usr/local/etc/000.wi.sh?)
Many thanks,
