WIRELESS PROLEM
I have this wireless card:
root@1[sirio81]# lspci | grep Wireless
0000:01:03.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection (rev 05)
Its module are loaded
root@1[sirio81]# lsmod | grep ipw
ipw2200 127684 0
ieee80211 28104 1 ipw2200
It's working, knemo show that eth1 is connected, the HW address, the ESSID, modality managed.
The frequency us not shown, bit rate is 0, like nois and link quality.
It should mean it's connected with the router (192.168.1.1) but...
root@1[sirio81]# ping 192.168.1.1
PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) 56(84) bytes of data.

From 192.168.1.127 icmp_seq=2 Destination Host Unreachable
From 192.168.1.127 icmp_seq=3 Destination Host Unreachable
I'm not using any encritpion and with windows or ubuntu dapper it works without problems.
I can't understund what's the problem.
Here follow ather details:

May you helo me?
This is the only true problem I have with mepis.
Thanks!




Have you gone through the basic steps?
Assuming you are using 6.5, you should go through this if you have not already:
http://www.mepis.org/docs/en/index.php/Adjust_the_wireless_connection
From your output, it looks to me like this should get you online.
It was sufficient to select
It was sufficient to select Automatic and start knetworkmanager.
Thanks!!!!!!!!!!
