litlle problem
litlle problem
hi, I have my intel pro3945 wireless running without problems after to have added ipw3945 modules, but my litlle problem is when I restart my pc my wireless doesn't work, first I have to disconnect wireless and then activate it again.
my wireleress card is recognised during boot, here in first image you can see how my network is recognised and detected but I can't connect.

in second image after deactivate and activate again I can connect to internet.

any suggestion to do it automatically?

Re: litlle problem
Try editing the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg- file for the wireless interface and the IP address of the wireless router and maybe set the ONBOOT line;
GATEWAY=
ONBOOT=yes
GATEWAY=
ONBOOT=yes
Re: litlle problem
my problem is not solved like you said ,here you have my script, but now I have to activate in each reboot to get connected.
TYPE=Wireless
DEVICE=eth1
HWADDR=00:13:02:xx:xx:xx
BOOTPROTO=none
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
DHCP_HOSTNAME=
IPADDR=192.168.1.3
DOMAIN=
ONBOOT=yes
USERCTL=yes
IPV6INIT=no
PEERDNS=yes
ESSID=iris
CHANNEL=1
MODE=Managed
RATE=Auto
GATEWAY=192.168.1.1

Re: litlle problem
Try once more and empty the HWADDR line: HWADDR=
And you may want to disable kudzu at boot: chkconfig --levels 345 kudzu off

Re: litlle problem
I have tried all that you said disabling kudzu and HWADDR line is empty and it doesn't work
any suggestion more?
thanks for your time.

Re: litlle problem
Maybe, but first what did you install for your ipw3945 device??? Is this wireless device maybe USB??
Maybe you want review this thread in this CentOS Networking Support forum: Intel PRO/WiFi ipw3945abg installation

Re: litlle problem
I installed my ipw3945 device like in the other thread that you say.
it's not usb , it is integrated wireless in my vaio

Re: litlle problem
OK, as a suggestion try editing the /etc/rc.d/rc.local file and stop and restart the device, for example;
[code]
#!/bin/sh
#
# This script will be executed *after* all the other init scripts.
# You can put your own initialization stuff in here if you don't
# want to do the full Sys V style init stuff.
/sbin/ifdown eth1 > /dev/null 2>&1
/sbin/ifup eth1 > /dev/null 2>&1
touch /var/lock/subsys/local
[/code]
This is a tiny bit 'down and dirty' to automatically do at boot time what you are currently doing manually to restart the device.
This does not solve the issue but is a possible workaround.
