wireless connection
Hi
Having a problem getting the Orinoco silver
to work on Redhat 7.3. (new full install)
On install it worked - sometimes - but I had to manually set the default gateway to the wireless instead of the 10/100 ethernet card.
Most often I had to restart pcmcia to get it going properly.
Now its all broken. (I'm not sure why!)
The thing starts with the "beep-beep" to say the card is active etc. - the network,mask, etc. is all set - but it somehow doesn't see the gateway.
"network unreachable!!" when I ping.
I can activate/deactivate both network cards without problems -- and checked that the "pcmcia restart" uses and loads the correct modules.
The 10/100 on eth0 installs without any hassles.
Installing it on M$w2k it works....
I've gone thru all the setup files, as when I installed it for 7.1. (where I recompiled the kernel to get it to work). All seems fine.
I think there is something small I'm missing.. Any ideas?? Is there a trace or some such I can try to see what is cooking? Using "rc3" I can see activity on it. Don't really know what the red/green traces are telling me though
Any other programs I can use to monitor this??
Like some sort of sniffer??
Tx in advance

xirc2ps_cs
XIRC2PS_CS(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual XIRC2PS_CS(4) NAME
xirc2ps_cs - Xircom CE2ps (and newer) device driver SYNOPSIS
insmod xirc2ps_cs.o [pc_debug=n] [full_duplex=n] [irq_list=i,j,...] [if_port=n] [lockup_hack=n] DESCRIPTION
xirc2ps_cs is the low-level Card Services driver for the Xircom 16-bit PCMCIA ethernet adapters. When this driver is attached to a card, it allocates the next available ethernet device. PARAMETERS
pc_debug=n Selects the PCMCIA debugging level. This parameter is only available if the module is compiled with debugging enabled. A non-zero value enables debugging. if_port=n Selects the transceiver type, for some CE3B-100 cards that lack the ability to autonegotiate. For such cards, a value of 1 selects 10baseT, and 4 selects 100baseT. full_duplex=n Selects full duplex mode. The default is 0 (half duplex). irq_list=i,j,... Specifies the set of interrupts that may be allocated by this driver. lockup_hack=n Enables a hack to avoid lockups on some cards. Use this only if you really have lockup problems with your card.
