Hello, Few weeks back I loaded SUSE10.1 on my laptop. Since then I was facing one problem or the other and many a times I had to reinstall as I was helpless and didn't know way out. I am sure there must have been solutions but to me back then reinstallation was the easiest option. In my latest installation the Wireless card went undetected last week I had posted in this list that I am unable to install the Intel Pro 2200 BG on my IBM R52 thinkpad. With valuable inputs I was able to do that. Now, comes another problem. The area I am putting up, has around 8-9 wireless networks, mostly unencrypted and the one of my campus is encrypted. I can connect to the unencrypted networks but not to my campus's network. The unencrypted networks are no good as they don't provide connectivity to the internet. (probably they are in testing phase or something) I had a talk with the system administrator. He told me that he has set the wireless configuration to 64 bit WEP passphrase on channel 8. He also told me that he doesn't clearly remember thing so he asked me to meet him again on Friday as that day he will show me the entire configuration. Now, my question is, since I am unable to connect, and I have an appointment with him; what should I look for. He is having little knowledge of Linux and operates a windows machine. What exactly happens is that when I select the desired wireless ESSID, the Knetwork manager progresses to 58 % where it says committing ip configuration and exits. Sometimes, it even exits at 27% where it says configuring the device. I did a tail -f /var/log/NetworkManager from console and at one point I read that DHCP took too long, more than 45 sec to connect. I had posted this problem of not able to connect sometime back also but didn't get much help on it. I hope someone can help me this time. -- Puneit Singh 0091-9350832020
