question on the FedoraForum.org site with no response. Here is what I
have. We just moved into a new home that does not have ant wire
connections. The machine (server) I had in the past was connected to a
wired network (etho). After the move, I bought and installed a Netgear
WG311 (Version2) in to the Fedora system. After working with Linuxant
support I was able to get the web utility to see the card and install the
drivers (latest from the web) for the card. I can see the card as eth1
when I do an ifconfig, and I can also see all the details when I do an
iwconfig. The ESSID and the WEP keys are correct, and I also checked the
setting on a different (laptop with wireless) setup. I believe it is set
to Ad-Hoc and Auto for the speed. I have tried to force it to 11mb or 54mb
and neither worked. When I issue the route command, I see that all of my
routes are set for eth1 (wireless) interface. If I do a ping of the
wireless gateway I get the error message about the network is not
available. The machine is set with a static IP, the same that the now
disabled eth0 (wired) had. I also made sure that SELINUX is
disabled.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Can anyone recommend or suggest any testing tools
or other means that I can find where the connection is not being made? The
AP is a Motorola Surfboard 900 (cable/wireless unit), and the NICs MAC and
address are correctly configured on the AP.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Comments or suggestions? I'm not sure of all
the things one can do from a troubleshooting perspective via iwconfig. I
have only used it to make temp changes in the past. The card is also seen
in the Fedora Network Configuration tool, and all of the settings appear to be
correct there also.</FONT></DIV>
