Title: Help Request: Wireless On Tosa
Post by: leland on March 17, 2007, 01:41:12 pm

Hello.

I'm using OZ 3.5.4.2-rc2 with Opie. I didn't have luck getting a wireless connection using the Opie network interface, so I used the guide for Tosa on the OZ wiki.

In my /etc/network/interfaces I have the line

Code: [Select]

wireless_ng_authtype opensystem
which is what my wireless network requires (works with my laptop)

however, when I open opie-terminal and type in iwconfig,  the output includes the line

Quote

Security mode: restricted

can anyone help me fix this ?

Ok, there was also an applicable line in the /etc/wlan/wlancfg-mynetworkname file.

It said AuthType="opensystem"

I removed the quotes, and now iwconfig shows that there is an opensystem

However, udhcpd still does not connect.

I noticed that in iwconfig's output the bit

Quote

IEEE 802.11-DS

however, in my working laptop interface it specs

Quote

IEEE 802.11g

does this make a difference ?
