FW: [driverloader] Fixed - Issue with DellTrueMobile1300andLinksysBEFW11S4r2

[Andrew Crown]

Jean-Simon,  

I know this is a bit OT, but if that is the correct way to set the
wireless card to be activated on boot, then how should I handle multiple
profiles (i.e. work and home) since the essid's and keys are different?
I thought that is where the cardctl application came in, but if there is
another way to do it I'd love to know.  

Thanks again,  

AC

Hi,

setting the key and essid in the 'ifcfg-ethN' script (for distributions
that support this mechanism) is the proper method to do it.

Jean-Simon,

I'm able to set the key and essid in the ifcfg-eth1 file in
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts and it works on boot, but that's
essentially setting it manually is my understanding.  I haven't been
able to get the PCMCIA cardctl mechanism to work as of yet with Driver
Loader, however I'll try this again at home tonight when I boot up.

Thx,

AC

Hi,

thank you for the update. You also mentioned that you had to manually
change the key and essid. Is this also fixed?

Not sure if the 1.2 version had anything to do with it or not, but I
fixed this tonight.  I think it could be a bug on the Linksys too...

I turned WEP off then on again and it mysteriously started working...
