More troubles with the TI acx100 chip


Well had my wireless trendware-card halfway-working with the leaked binary-driver, but decided to try another distro to se if the acx100-driverprojekt would work here. And it actually did...

That is - almost...

I've once againe followed the directions in the howto at www.houseofcraig.net and I got the card working. When I do an iwconfig, I can se the AP there har perfect link and almost no noise.
BUT I can not ping neither my router nor my server or any other machine.

So far I've used WEP on my network, but when I set a 64-bit hex-key with iwconfig eth0 key XXXX-XXXX-XX, the key that shows up when i do an iwconfig afterwards are not the same(?). Therefore I've set my AP to accept both oopen and encryptet conections, and did a iwconfig eth0 key off.

What am I doing wrong???

Ok now I've gotten it working. I'v just disabled the wep-key on my ap, but I would actually like to have my AP protected by the wep-key. Anybody who could help me figure this one out?

Only thing needs to be done now, is setting up the card corectly on boot or when the card is loaded, I suppose that i will have to make a ifcfg-eth0-file, and save my settings in this file?

Am I on the right track?
