Hi ALL, Short description of my problem: I am not able to make wireless network working on the IBM ThinkPad T43p. System: T43p OS: CentOS 4.4 kernel: 2.6.9-34.EL firmware: ipw2200-firmware-3.0-3.nodist.rf.noarch.rpm What did I do ? - installed firmware from RPM package - removed kernel driver (/sbin/rmmod ipw2200) - installed kernel module (/sbin/modprobe ipw2200) dmesg output:

I've installed ipw2200-firmware-3.0-3.nodist.rf from RPMForge using yum OK. I've loaded the ipw modules with /sbin/modprobe ipw2200 and then /sbin/lsmod | grep ipw which gives: ipw2200 136873 0 ieee80211 33417 1 ipw2200 However, when I run system-config-network I don't see Intel Coporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG (eth1) in the list of adapters. Also, when I

Trying to set up wireless networking with CentOS 4.4 on a (new Dell) laptop and have looked at http://www.ces.clemson.edu/linux/fc2- ipw2200.shtml and http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php? topic_id=2532&forum=30 regarding use of ipw2200, which is included in the kernel. The problem is that it doesn't appear to be actually installed/loaded because the Intel Corporation

Has anyone else had any problems with getting wifi to work after upgrade ?

Hi, I have CentOS4.1 up to date and I get on boot: ipw2200: Detected Intel PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Network Connection divert: allocating divert_blk for eth1 ipw2200: ipw-2.2-boot.fw load failed: Reason -2 ipw2200: Unable to load firmware: 0xFFFFFFFE divert: freeing divert_blk for eth1 ipw2200: failed to register network device ipw2200: probe of 0000:03:03.0 failed with error -5 My understanding

Using CentOS 5 - installed ipw2200 firmware and tried to set up new eth1 wifi device, but adapter Intel Coporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG doesn't show up in list of adapters when I try add New Device (ipw2200 does show up on hardware tab as ipw2200 eth1 ethernet configured). I've noticed that when I run system-config-network on command line, these errors show up:

In 5100 and 1100 series Inspirons Intel 2915abg cards work MUCH cooler than the original Broadcoms, don't choke up in hot weather like the original Dell cards and don't require ndiswrapper. (All of 2 Notebooks were tested outdoors at 98 deg F ambient. Dropouts occured in both Centos 4.4 & XP on these dual boot notebooks with the Dell Mini-PCI's, none with 2915's). The only

Hi All, can anybody tell me what has changed in this new kernel release that is getting most of us stucked ? I have an Intel HDA Audio device and an Intel 2200 wireless in my laptop and both stopped working with this new kernel. Both audio and wireless device seems to be ok but there's no sound from the intel hda and the wireless find AP's but doesn't connect. below is the lspci

OK, I've downloaded and unzipped the firmware files in ipw2200-fw-3.0.tgz - so I have 4 files: ipw2200-bss.fw, ipw2200-ibss.fw, ipw2200-sniffer.fw and LICENSE.ipw2200-fw, all of which I've placed in the /lib/firmware directory. Unfortunately, the instructions in README.ipw2200 and INSTALL are not clear as to what to do next. I'm using CentOS 5 on my (Dell) laptop so setting-up wireless

Can anyone recommend compatible wireless cards for desktops? Also what software/packages/etcwould I need to get the devices working? I have the centrino ipw2200 pkg running nicely on my laptop, I suspect that none of the desktop wireless cards will be this easy... Thanks in advance for any advice. ========================================== Your Mouse Has Moved. Windows must restart to affect

Installed CentOS 5 on my Dell Inspiron 1501 laptop, hoping that it will be easier to set up wireless networking than it was in CentOS 4.4. But still sooooo difficult to get it working, mainly because there doesn't appear to be a driver pre-installed for this wireless card ((Dell wireless 1390 Mini PCI network card 802.11b/g). Do I still have to use ipw2200 and what is this anyway? - I really

Hi all! I tried to use CentOS5 on an IBM Thinkpad R52 which has an Intel PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Mini-PCI Adapter installed. I downloaded the firmware from the DAG-Repo (afaik 3.0.0) and added a "alias eth1 ipw2200" to modules.conf. After the module was loaded successfully (including the firmware) I was able to configure the card. For simplicity I didn't use any encryption. My

This may not be the best place to ask, but Google hasn't given me any useful information. I have an "older" laptop that is using the Intel 2200 wireless interface. I installed CentOS 5 on it some time ago and everything is fine. When I was reviewing my kickstart setups I found that the ipw2200 firmware package is no longer available in RPMForge. The CentOS site's how-to page

Is there any way I can find a driver and/or get the above wireless card working in CentOS 5 on my Dell laptop (Inspiron 1501). I've installed ipw2200 from RPMForge, but it now appears that this won't work because the card is not an Intel PRO/Wireless card. Dell seem to support only MS Windows Vista now so I don't think there's much chance of getting a driver from them - so am I on

Is anyone successfully using a Belkin F5D6050 USB Wireless in CentOS 4.2? If so, what driver are you using? Did you have to do anything special to make it work? At this point, I have downloaded, compiled installed and loaded the latest drivers from http://atmelwlandriver.sourceforge.net but lvnet is unable to find my adapter. I've tried every driver module that it created, and still no

I am installing CentOS5 on a dell Lattitude D610. dmesg: recognizes the the wireless Intel 2915: ipw2200: Detected Intel Pro/Wireless 2915ABG Network Connection I have googled for ipw2915 and centos5 OR rhel5, can't find instructions for installing the firmware. Should the firmware be installed from the CDs? Any suggestion? -- Thanks http://www.911networks.com When the network has to

This is a new Centos 5.1 install on a HP nc2400 (that use to run XP). Completely clean install; blew away the XP partitions... After applying all the updates, and configuring for the rpmforge repo, I used yumex to install dkms and the dkms-ipw3945, ipw3945-firmware, and ipw3945d rpms. lsmod|grep ipw shows: ipw3945 180391 1 ieeee80211 33417 1 ipw3945 and dmesg)grep

Hi, I have been using CenOS-4.1 quite sometime now on this laptop. Under CentOS I am having a problem during boots (soft or hard boots) that I never had with any other Linux distros including Fedora 4. I have to reboot the laptop twice as the first boot returns blank screen and hangs when it attempts to bring up login screen. I tested this a few times, there is no disk activity or any sign

Thank you so much!!! It worked.

I went to the wiki and searched for both wireless and wifi and did not find anything related to wireless cards in CentOS. I think it would be stellar to have something similar to the laptops page but for wifi chipsets. I would propose it have three categories: FOSS chipsets Native driver but not FOSS chipsets (ie atheros via madwifi) NDIS Wrapper FSF has compiled somewhat of a list at
