Hello everybody, this weekend i tried opensuse rc1 - everything looks fine but I cannot connect to the internet via my wlan. I had the same problem with 9.3 but I could solve this by deleting my ethernetcard in yast. In rc1 I cannot delete the ethernetcard. If I click on delete the card does not disappear, it simply is markedt as "unconfigured" and that doesn't help (at least on suse 9.3) - is there any way to delete the card? Excuse my clumsy English ant thanks for your help. helmut

Some questions: Are you connected to a LAN as well (i.e. have you plugged in an ethernet/TP cable as well) ? I could configure my SuSE 9.3 by using the the "ifplugd" for the LAN port. You can enable this using YaST. Therefore chose the LAN port and open the "extended options"/"device activation" (sinngem.) [Erweiterte Einstellungen]-[Geräte-Aktivierung]. You will find entries like (sinngem.) "during startup" [Beim Systemstart], "if plugged-in" [Bei Kabelanschluß], "hotplugged" [Falls hot-plugged], "Manual" [Manuell] and "Never" [Niemals]. The 2nd one [Bei Kabelanschluß] should be your selection for the LAN port. For the WLAN port you need not to change anything.
Excuse my clumsy English ant thanks for your help.

"Not configured" in YaST is meaning "not disturbing anything else", so you should have a closer look at your wlan interface. And at least you need to tell what it is - your wlan interface - if you like to avoid 1000 good, but non-relevant answers here. You should struggle to avoid that.
