Hi!

Using the following wifi configuration within my /etc/network/interfaces
file fails.

...

auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet static
address 192.168.10.2
netmask 255.0.0.0
network 192.168.10.255
gateway 192.168.10.1
wireless-mode managed
wireless-essid TSP
wireless-key AC45FE23ED3EDF51A78CDE45F1
dns-nameservers 192.168.10.100
dns-search thorpesystems.local

The only related message I seem to be able to find in /var/log/dmesg is
this....

ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready

After doing 'ifup wlan0', what is the result of 'ifconfig wlan0' and
'iwconfig wlan0'?

Tony.
