i know there are dozens of options, but like i said, when i first installed rh9, and the first thing i ran is "make menuconfig", then the .config file would have my config as my default kernel is as far as i know, and when compiling it again just with that config, things goes wrong.. i haven't made any changes to the config file. this is very strange to me, but i've also got slackware 9.1 and FC2 installed, so i'll give it a go with these distro's :)
In your /etc/resolv.conf, you have both nameserver and domain set, right?
nameserver 192.168.1.1
domain localdomain.com
And lame-o question for the day, you're not using static addressing on the router while trying to get a dynamic IP (dhcp) through the card, are you?
It sounds to me more like an issue with network settings, not necessarily a module problem.
One major issue I've seen with wireless (especially in our work environment), setting the ESSID was the key. Might check that too...
yes i have...Quote:

haha, no it's just the opposit, i'm running dhcp on the router, but have to use a static ip on linux, on windows it uses dhcp though...Quote:

i think it is a setting problem too, but i can't find the right settings anywhere, i've tried about everything i can think of..Quote:

the ESSID is set to "wireless" (since this is my ESSID on my router) but i've tried "any" also, and this doesn't work either...
the goal is to get dhcp running with wep encryption for my private network, but i would like to use any other network as well, with or without WEP, just like you are able to do in windows.
