Default Wireless issue with Suse 9.1 and TrueMobile 1300



I installed diver loader from linuxant on my Dell D600 equipped with a
TrueMobile 1300 wireless card. The installation went well and it seems that
the driver is loaded properly. I configured the wireless interface using
YAST2 and using iwconfig, I can see that the interface gets a valid IP
address. However, I am unable to make any connection through that
interface... Any help would be really appreciated.

Interestingly, I did the same installation on Fedora 2 and I got the card
running fine. I winder what I could be missing here. I do prefer to use Suse
so far.

Thanks for the help

david

did you forget your encryption settings?

You may have to restart the firewall, perhaps using YaST to select the
wireless interface.

I am not using any encryption at this stage... one step at a time ;-)
