Ipw2100


I have some problem getting my intel 2100 3B wireless to work. It seem that it manage to associate with the Access Point but unable to send data. Anyone know what are the possible reasons.

ieee80211_crypt: registered algorithm 'NULL'
ieee80211: loading with WEP enabled.
ipw2100: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2100 Network Driver, 0.50
ipw2100: Copyright(c) 2003-2004 Intel Corporation
ipw2100: Compiled with LEGACY FW load.
Detected ipw2100 PCI device at 0000:01:02.0, mem: 0xE0000000-0xE0000FFF -> 21cb0
000, irq: 10
divert: allocating divert_blk for eth1
eth1: Using legacy firmware load.
Registered as eth1
ipw2100: eth1: Restarting adapter.
eth1: Using legacy firmware load.
ieee80211_crypt: registered algorithm 'WEP'
Setting security to 1
eth1: no IPv6 routers present

eth1: Associated with 'linky' at 11Mbps, channel 8

eth1: Non consumed packet:

anyone know what this non consumed packet is

[root@cauthon sbin]# ./iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.

sit0 no wireless extensions.

eth0 no wireless extensions.

eth1 IEEE 802.11b ESSID:"linky" Nickname:"cauthon"

seem that it is associated with the Access Point
