I use KNetworkManager. Not sure if that would help really. Have you tried uninstalling the driver and reinstalling it? On 5/16/07, James D. Parra <Jamesp@musicreports.com> wrote:

Sometimes mine will do that, so what I usually do is

su pccardctl eject pccardctl insert rcnetwork restart

Basically, I just want to get the card to restart itself, and then get reinitialized.

Have a Linksys wireless card using the ndiswrapper for the driver. Although it has bee working like a charm for the past few months, a couple of days ago it could no longer see wireless networks. The Power LED is lit on the card, however the Link LED doesn't flicker periodically as though there is no TCP traffic or even a 'heart beat' flicker.

'ifconfig shows the MAC address of the card and ndiswrapper -l shows, 'lstinds driver present, hardware present'.

Any ideas on how I can fix this?

Thank you for the info. Sadly, that didn't work. Even a reboot doesn't fix the problem. Restarting the network shows wlan0 device: Wireless Interface and then it backgrounds the DHCP request, however I never see the LED flicker on the card. It is as though no packets are getting to the card. The card works when I boot into windows, but I don't really want to do that.

What else can I do to trouble shoot this? Anything to look for in the logs?

Try running

dmesg | grep wlan0

and

dmesg | grep ndiswrapper

and see what shows up

Thanks, tried those and everything looks good. I am using Kiniternet-Internet Tool to locate Access Points. Is there a CLI tool I could use to locate an Access Point or, perhaps, some other tool?

Many thanks,
