(Using Debian Sarge)
I previously had trouble connecting to the internet because I was using kernel version 2.6.13 which has wireless-extensions v18, where my wireless-tools was supported v11 (or so) to v17. However using kernel 2.6.12.6, other wireless works fine, so I am assuming the issue is not due to the wireless-extensions version differences/support.
Other wireless points work fine, but this one doesn't work in linux (it works fine on the windows partition of this machine in the same place).
For more information here's my iwconfig:
Code:
iwconfig eth2
eth2 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:"SMCCCD_Public"

and here's the dhclient output:

Any help to figure how to get this wireless point to access this wireless point in linux would be helpful and appreciated. Please ask for any other output/information that may be helpful for solving this.
