I have the same problem as firas, don't get any error message but wpa doesn't wan't to work. Without encryption i get a connectin to my router.Originally Posted by firas
I updated to the latest driver and firmware. No improvement.
What looks strange to me is that sudo wpa_cli status returns the following
Why does it complain key_mgmt=UNKNOWN. It is set to key_mgmt=WPA-PSK in /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf and manually starting wpa returns: key_mgmt: 0x2 analog to firas post.Code:Selected interface 'eth1' bssid=00:00:00:00:00:00 pairwise_cipher=UNKNOWN group_cipher=UNKNOWN key_mgmt=UNKNOWN wpa_state=SCANNING Supplicant PAE state=DISCONNECTED suppPortStatus=Unauthorized EAP state=DISABLED
I am now trying to build a vanilla kernel from kernel.org and install ipw2100 again. At the moment i am getting mad. I checked every config i know several times. No errors in the log and i know the wpz_supplicant.conf hast to work, as it did in gentoo, before i switched to ubuntu. My stomache realy hurts cause of waisting time with this @#%^&*( network encryption.
I additionaly found this Bugreport, but without a solution:
https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=9970
Hope firas or anyoneelse solved the problem with 2100 and can give me a hint.
Ok, i followed the HowTo
all seens to work:
but i cannot connect to the internet (timeout) with firefox or ping for example...Code:stan@ubuntu:~$ dmesg | grep ipw ipw2200: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver, 1.0.4 ipw2200: Copyright(c) 2003-2004 Intel Corporation ipw2200: Detected Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection stan@ubuntu:~$ sudo wpa_supplicant -B -i eth1 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -D ipw -w -dd Initializing interface 'eth1' conf '/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf' driver 'ipw' Configuration file '/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf' -> '/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf' Reading configuration file '/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf' Line: 1 - start of a new network block ssid - hexdump_ascii(len=6): XX XX XX XX XX XX XWLAN proto: 0x1 scan_ssid=1 (0x1) key_mgmt: 0x2 PSK (ASCII passphrase) - hexdump_ascii(len=9): [REMOVED] PSK (from passphrase) - hexdump(len=32): [REMOVED] Priority group 0 id=0 ssid='XWLAN' Daemonize.. stan@ubuntu:~$ iwconfig lo no wireless extensions. eth0 no wireless extensions. eth1 IEEE 802.11g ESSID:"XWLAN" Mode:Managed Frequency:2.462 GHz Access Point: XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX Bit Rate=54 Mb/s Tx-Power=20 dBm RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Power Management:off Link Quality=97/100 Signal level=-28 dBm Noise level=-81 dBm Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0 Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:173 Missed beacon:0 sit0 no wireless extensions.
PLEASE, need help
edit: it seems, that the WLAN DOES something, i can see the MAC-address in the AP-menu, but no IP!
how i can configure my eth1 for DHCP??
sould i do something with /etc/network/interfaces?
before last apt-get update i had no problems with this configuration

sudo ifdown eth1 then sudo ifup eth1 will get a new ip address. Look at the latter part of the guide for info on how to start wpa_supplicant on bootup. If you do this the network daemon should automatically get a new IP on bootup.

no, does not work,
now the driver is broken or something...
at startup i get errors like this:
Code:ipw2200: failed to send ASSOCIATE command ipw2200: failed to send SSID command ipw2200: ipw_send_system_config failed ipw2200: failed to send SSID command ipw2200: failed to send SSID command ipw2200: no space for Tx ipw2200: failed to send SSID command
if there a definative tutorial on how to do this? i have tried and tried and i keep getting the make error, so do i need the header package also?
i am pretty much a newbie.
This is a pretty much definative but it does assume you have a bit of experience with compiling which is easy once you do it and learn to interpret the error messages. So what is the error message you are getting? Where are you getting stuck at? If you are more specific, we can help.Originally Posted by MrSandman
Make sure you are disabling your wireless card in the BIOS or through a button the keyboard. If not, try reinstalling being sure to remove the old drivers.Originally Posted by motion_blur

Yes, you need the kernel headers or the kernel source.Originally Posted by MrSandman
Hi ive done everything in your howto, but when i start up my computer, i get this message from dmesg, with the command dmesg | grep ipw..

i dunno what this means, but it seems that i cannot get the wireless interface to function properly, im sending screens of iwconfig eth1 and /etc/network/interfaces too

my router stands on this settings

its a D-link di-624
hope this information is enough
thanks for the howto, with this i at least got a MAC-address ;D
thanks for the tip
