Re: Wireless Woes U7.04 and D-Lnk WDA-1320

Pete Holsberg keyed the following on 6/30/2007 4:41 PM:
I bought a new PCI wireless card for it's Atheros chipset and
reinstalled Ubuntu 7.04,

Got a message about restricted drivers; it recognized my adapter! :-)

Tried to configure the adapter with the Network Tools/Manager and
while I was able to select one of the ESSIDs it saw and add the WEP
password, I was unable to use any network tools (ping, traceroute,
etc.)

When I tried iwconfig, ath0 had no ESSID or nickname and when I tried
to give it one, the connand failed!!

What is going on here???

<blush> Forgot to use sudo!

OK, now it has a nickname, an ESSID and an AP, but IU still cannot ping,
etc.!!
