    Hi guys, here was my issue at first;

     

    I tried connecting with my Compaq X1000 laptop to a wireless router

    It's a centrino chipset

     

     

    I set up the essid and crypt correctly...got a signal and was connected.

     

    The wireless router issued me a ip address, iwconfig confirmed I had an
    address

     

    I tried pinging my router...unreachable, checked route -n and noticed I
    didn't have a default gw. Added a default gateway hoping that would fix
    it..NOPE, no luck!

     

    Link says 100..ultimate line quality. My router says I'm connected to
    it..however I can't ping anything!! I pinged my laptop ip to be sure, I
    got a reply. Went to freenode.org and tried asking around. They
    thought maybe I needed to upgrade the driver. Downloaded and installed
    ipw2100 1.0.1, but now it won't load, getting the following error;

     

    WARNING: Error inserting ieee80211
    (/lib/modules/2.6.8-24-default/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ipw2100/ieee8
    0211.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

     

    Unloaded all ieee modules...still didn't help.

     

    Can someone please help me? I have no idea what to do next?? Thanks!!

     

    Thom
