True Mobile 1300 being evil
Hi Guys,
I have seen a number of posts regarding this issue and people have replied with generic wifi advice. Please dont reply to this unless you really think it relevant. I have a dell true mobile 1300 card. It is evil. Evil because quite often it will refuse to connect to AP's I am using ndiswrapper version 1.11 as 1.13 is broken (using gentoo) My issue is that my laptop will refuse to connect to a number of different access points. Thankfully it works at home: iwconfig wlan0 key open `cat ~/hkey` iwconfig wlan0 essid SWAMR-54108 All is well, the card associates and I can do normal setup However it simply refuses to associate with a number of AP's both open and wep'd. no messages in dmesg etc. Has anyone had experience of this ? Is it a known issue? eg, to connect to the open ap : tsunami first I run iwlist to make sure that it is in any cache the card/driver may have iwlist wlan0 scan finds and lists the AP fine... then I set the essid: iwlist wlan0 essid tsunami nothing happens, iwconfig still says the essid is off/any each time i try the activity light for the wifi comes on for a second or two and then drops off again. Its driving me nuts! Many Thanks, Rob |
