I just installed PCLinuxOS and as I am trying to set up my wireless card, it continues to have problems. Now for some details:
Wireless Card: D-Link DWL-AG530
Driver associated with it: Atheros Communications Inc. Atheros AR5001X+ Wireless Network Adapter
OS: PCLinuxOS 2009.1 Final
I have checked with the router and the WEP keys match and the MAC Address of the card matches an address allowed access by the router. As for what happens, I set up a new network interface and I try to use the drivers from D-Link and ndiswrapper but it insists I use the Atheros drivers. So I proceed with those and it tests the connection saying it was successful. When I go to monitor the connection, it tells me not connected so I connect it. It sends data but does not receive any data and times out after 19 seconds. Once again, the MAC address is allowed and the WEP key work so by idea, the card should work. Could it be a driver issue?
Any help is greatly appreciated
