Problem With R121 And Sl-c860
« on: March 05, 2007, 03:01:53 am »
hi there...

i tried yesterday to install the new version r121... I put the u-boot on my zaurus 860 and install r121... all work great... but my wifi card (an asus) doesn't work

when i put him in the slot, it is recognised by the mount tools, and the led on the card light on and off...

i create a new profile named "wireless" but i can't connect

is there a solution?

and it's possible to install older version of pdaxrom (like the beta1 (because my wifi card work with this version)) with u-boot or i need to restore the original nan flash util??

thx all

I know with r121 the Lan and Wifi program does not work correctly.  Your better off running a script to get it working.  Check out this thread

https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=21852

it may help starting off.  I know the pdaXrom website has sample scripts too.  A further search will say something like a service for the latest kernel is not the same that the program reference too.

Hope that helps.

I know this doesn't really help you, but FWIW I'm in the same boat as you. I haven't been able to get my SMC card working in r121 (see details here). Since the last post I've made there & reflashed r121 & am working on other stuff. If somebody does have a solution I think we'd both love to hear it.

Here's a direct copy from pdaxrom.org:

I have made some scripts for loads and configure my Zaurus network gadgets.

eth0.up
Code: [Select]
#!/bin/bash
ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.5 up
route add default gw 192.168.0.1
echo "nameserver 192.168.0.1" > /etc/resolv.conf
ifconfig eth0

wlan0.up
Code: [Select]
#!/bin/sh
ifconfig wlan0 down
iwconfig wlan0 essid ESSIDNAME mode managed key XXXXXXXXXX channel NN power on

EDIT: You may need to add "dhcpcd wlan0" to the end of the script to get it to work.

Here's the script I wrote on the link I posted earlier

#!/bin/sh
echo "Resetting Wireless"
ifconfig wlan0 down
rm /var/run/dhcpcd-wlan0.pid
sleep 1
echo "Turning Up Network"
ifconfig wlan0 up
iwconfig wlan0 essid Core mode managed key ##########
dhcpcd wlan0
sleep 5
ifconfig wlan0

It's probably not the best.  But it worked for me.

Yup... and change the ssid as well.  "Core" is the one I have set at home.

Holding down the Fn or shift key while clicking should work.
Give it a try.
