SuSE 9.2 / Belkin 54g / bcmwltry / ndiswrapper


I am attempting to use ndiswrapper to get my Belkin Wireless card working in SuSE 9.2.

I've followed the necessary installation procedures, and the DHCP server on my router is even assigning me an IP Address (192.168.1.104). The router is a Linksys with WEP 128-Bit Hexadecimal Encryption set up.

I can't ping anything, not even the router. I've double checked the encryption key and all of that jazz.

Don't know what's going on.

Suggestions?

I may have just answered my own question.

I went into YaST, and turned off the Firewall temporarily. It seems to be connecting now.

Let me reboot and make sure it still works after reboot.

Bingo. Reboot was a success.

Sorry to waste thread space for this, but who knows. This may help someone later though.
