Thanks, Hans; here are my results. Hans van der Merwe wrote:
Ok, lets start with the obvious:
No eth1 device - so the module (driver) is either not working or the interface is not up. Check that the module is loaded (do all this as su (root user))
(1)
lsmod (this will list the modules loaded, is ipw3945 in there)
ipw3945 191520 0 ieee80211 34632 1 ipw3945 firmware_class 14080 1 ipw3945
ps ax (check that ipw3945d in running)
1908 ? S< 0:00 [ipw3945/0] 1910 ? S< 0:00 [ipw3945/0] 16014 ? S< 0:00 [ipw3945/1] 16015 ? S< 0:00 [ipw3945/1]
(2) if it is:
ifup eth1
Interface eth1 is not available
(3) if not: modprobe ipw3945 repeat (1) when successful - do (2)
Just this for now. Also check the /var/log/messages log when loading the module, for any errors
