Hello, I just purchased a Belkin Wireless G desktop card. I downloaded the necessary madwifi and madwifi kernel module for suse 10.1 from the madwifi.org web site. I installed them, configured with yast2->network devices->network cards I chose a static address 192.168.0.50/255.255.255.0 the nameserver and host name is set to 192.168.0.20 primary 192.168.0.70 secondary hostname linux domain local.net default gateway to 192.168.0.1 I set the encryption to 128 bit wep and supplied my key. I told it to use traditional method with ifup. output of ifconfig shows the interface ath0 up with the correct address/netmask and connected to the correct ap. output of iwlist scanning returns my ap output of route -n 192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 ath0 127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo 0.0.0.0 192.168.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 ath0 this looks just like my wired connections and one other wireless connection based on the broadcom chipset. Problem, every time I try to ping a local machine it tells me that the destination host unreachable. Any ideas would be appreciated, as I need to get this machine connected through the wireless so I can relocate it.
