On both, wired work with ifup, on 11.3 also NM works.
On both no networkwith wifi, what is wrong..?

The interface is clear, and on 11.2 scanning results in finding dhcp
network, in 11.3 scanning does nothing at all...

Is it in planning to have wifi for eee-pc with 11.2/11.3 or not?
It seems to be abandonned for now...
i found:

RT2870 802.11n USB 11.1 rt2870 Image:22px-Tick.png

<http://en.opensuse.org/File:Question.png> Not recognised by YAST.
Driver must be downloaded and built from Ralink support
<http://web.ralinktech.com/ralink/Home/Support/Linux.html>. Follow the
README_STA to build the driver. Module must then be configured to load
at startup then wpa_supplicant and ifup configured. Could not get this
configured within YAST or Network Manager but it works perfectly using
ifup.


mine has RT2860, so not much different..


Well, thats a bummer indeed, as the drivers are not found on that server
anymore:


Not Found

The requested URL /data/drivers/RT2860_Firmware_V11.zip was not found on
this server.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Apache/2.2.3 (CentOS) Server at www.ralinktech.com.tw Port 80

Does anyone, accidentaly have this driver 'at home'?
If so, i would not mind using a copy...
