I run my raspberry pi with a TP-Link Wlan-USB stick. The stick works out of the box with the pi-modded debian.
But eventhough the automatic connection to one of the saved WLAN-networks in the file /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf works, my PI doesn't request or receive an IP-address (automatically).
I always have to login via ethernet and do a
manually.
Why?
I thought "well, whatever, no problem, I write a cronjob which runs this command every couple of minutes". But this doesn't solve the issue neither...
Please let me know what could be a better solution.

Hello Experts,
I am working on a software that has network client-server architecture. I need to have a mechanism that notifies me upon change of dhcp address change locally or at remote machine. Windows have IP Helper APIs to get address change notification. Is there something similar in Unix?... (3 Replies)

WPI(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual WPI(4)NAME
wpi -- Intel 3945ABG Wireless LAN IEEE 802.11 driver
SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file:
device wpi
device wpifw
device pci
device wlan
device wlan_amrr
device firmware
Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):
if_wpi_load="YES"
DESCRIPTION
The wpi driver provides support for the Intel 3945ABG Wireless network adapter. wpi supports station, adhoc, and monitor mode operation.
Only one virtual interface may be configured at any time. For more information on configuring this device, see ifconfig(8).
This driver requires the firmware built with the wpifw module to work.
FILES
/usr/share/doc/legal/intel_wpi/LICENSE wpi firmware license
EXAMPLES
Join an existing BSS network (i.e., connect to an access point):
ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev wpi0 inet 192.168.0.20
netmask 0xffffff00
Join a specific BSS network with network name ``my_net'':
ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev wpi0 ssid my_net up
Join a specific BSS network with 64-bit WEP encryption:
ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev wpi0 ssid my_net
wepmode on wepkey 0x1234567890 weptxkey 1 up
Join a specific BSS network with 128-bit WEP encryption:
ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev wpi0 wlanmode adhoc ssid my_net
wepmode on wepkey 0x01020304050607080910111213 weptxkey 1
DIAGNOSTICS
wpi%d: could not load firmware image '%s' The driver failed to load the firmware image using the firmware(9) subsystem. Verify the wpifw
firmware module is installed.
wpi%d: fatal firmware error An unknown error has occurred in the uploaded firmware, you may have to unload/reload the driver to continue.
wpi%d: Radio transmitter is switched off The hardware switch controlling the radio is currently turned off. Data transmission is not possi-
ble in this state.

The original wpi driver was written for OpenBSD by Damien Bergamini <damien.bergamini@free.fr>. Benjamin Close <benjsc@FreeBSD.org> ported
wpi to FreeBSD.
