Greets; Have a USB Key adapter that I have been working on for my laptop. Everything is done except the network integration.Card is recognized, drivers load and wavemon shows traffic. Network integration is missing however. Here is where I get stuck. The two references that I have relied on are helpfull but fail to describe the last missing nuggest. http://at76c503a.berlios.de/distro_suse.html and http://lists.suse.com/archive/suse-linux-e/2004-Sep/0070.html I get the same errors, iwconfig wlan0 IEEE 802.11-DS ESSID:"linksys" Nickname:"okuwlan" Mode:Managed Channel:6 Access Point: 00:0F:66:05:41:83 Bit Rate:11Mb/s Tx-Power=15 dBm Retry limit:8 RTS thr=1536 B Fragment thr=1536 B Encryption key:off Power Management:off Link Quality:0/0 Signal level:117/255 Noise level:0/0 Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0 Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0 t23:/home/chris123 # ifup wlan0 wlan0 ERROR: No configuration found for wlan0 Now /etc/sysconfig/hardware/ contains config hwcfg-bus-pci-0000:02:08.0 hwcfg-static-0 scripts skel and hwcfg-bus-pci-0000:02:08.0 reads MODULE='e100' MODULE_OPTIONS='' STARTMODE='auto' which is correct for my nic on my laptop but not for the USB Key Adapter. As I want both the nic and adapter to be activated at different times not sure what I should enter into this file. SuSE detects everything fine (and yes as reported you cannot configure this with yast). Hardware detection reads as follows: Amtel unclassified device Bus: usb Device identifier: 226835 Driver: at76c505-rfm2958 Model: Atmel Unclassified device Old Unique key: 9yrU.qNRvD2d8381 lots more stuff then bus_hwcfg: usb sysfs_bus_id: 2-1:1.0 Any suggestion to complete this last step would be greatly appreciated. Regards and tks in advance. /ch

Ok this exercise is done. Basically its a snap as Yast 'can' be used to configure the device. Observations follow; 1. TRENDnet TEW-229USB 802.11b Wireless LAN Key is supported by both Yast and updates for atmel and wlan available via YOU. 2. The device 'can' be completely configured by Yast as the device is properly detected via usb -hotplug. Simply select other and work through the various views. 3. to bring up the device iwconfig wlan0 dhcpcd wlan0 good to go. 4. If you have other devices active on dhcp like eth0 then bring them down first with ifconfig eth0 down or similar. Then start the usd device. Nice to see this level of integration. Thanks so much for this effort. Regards /ch
