Ndiswrapper and Linuxant driver quit working upon 9.3 upgrade
Running my laptop under SuSE 9.1 and SLES 9, the Linuxant and ndiswrappers worked for my BCM4309. Upon upgrade to SuSE9.3, they've stopped. The iwconfig looks good, the signal looks strong, but DHCP won't work. I've totally opened up the network... no security or firewalls; but, I still can't dhcp an address. Any ideas? Thanks, Chris

I have the same problem. I solved this with my own kernel. Since I had build my own kernel ndiswrapper works. But its exactly the same ... I used 9.1 and it works great and with 9.3 it doesn't work with suse-kernel (iwlist dont get any results with suse kernel). Do you get a result with iwlist? IDEAR: Build your own kernel!!! greets Oli

Do you get a result with iwlist? Some "iwlist" commands have empty returns, but a few do return data,

Some "iwlist" commands have empty returns, but a few do return data, like:
# iwlist wlan0 frequency wlan0 14 channels in total; available frequencies : Channel 01 : 2.412 GHz Channel 02 : 2.417 GHz Channel 03 : 2.422 GHz Channel 04 : 2.427 GHz Channel 05 : 2.432 GHz Channel 06 : 2.437 GHz Channel 07 : 2.442 GHz Channel 08 : 2.447 GHz Channel 09 : 2.452 GHz Channel 10 : 2.457 GHz Channel 11 : 2.462 GHz Channel 12 : 2.467 GHz Channel 13 : 2.472 GHz Channel 14 : 2.484 GHz Current Frequency:2.462 GHz (Channel 11)
If the wlan-card detect a broadcast network, you can see this: XP3000:~ # iwlist wlan0 scan wlan0 Scan completed : Cell 01 - Address: 00:E0:63:82:8F:40 ESSID:"Doniluma" Protocol:IEEE 802.11b Mode:Managed Frequency:2.437 GHz (Channel 6) Quality:0/100 Signal level:-46 dBm Noise level:-256 dBm Encryption key:off Bit Rate:1 Mb/s Bit Rate:2 Mb/s Bit Rate:5.5 Mb/s Bit Rate:11 Mb/s Extra:bcn_int=100 Extra:atim=0 XP3000:~ # In that case the Doniluma net is available.

I dont know why, but it doesnt work with the suse-linux kernel ... build your own one and retry. If you find a solution to solve this problem without building a own kernel, please tell me. Greets Oli
