I'm reposting this, because I think that it's been pushed down far enough that people aren't seeing it. Basically, I've got my internal wireless card setup as my eth-pcmcia-0 device. Someone said something about how it should be bridged to eth1 and then I can use it. It doesn't seem to be doing that. Can anyone help? Thanks, Branton
I'm sorry that I haven't yet got this working... I really do appreciate your help.
3.1) fire up yast2 configure network card as pcmcia (DHCP settings might be troublesome, use hardcoded IP, just for testing at least)
YaST2 doesn't give me the option to configure the "Harris Semiconductor" (my wireless card) that it detects as PCMCIA. If I click "Configure", it goes straight to the screen where you set the IP address. I can click "Configure" where it says "Other (not detected)" and then I get the choice of a PCMCIA device. But I don't know how to hook that up to my internal wireless card.
If someone could point me in the right direction here, I would really appreciate it. (Currently, the wireless is configured as eth1 and not as PCMCIA.)
Thats exactly where you need to go - Others/Pcmcia - and set up config for IP&gateway&DNS there.
After it got pcmcia-ethX device, it will be bridged as ethY, and on restart of all things it will know that you got it.. Basic simple test - is that after you got it all - ifconfig should display ethY configured (might miss IP though, if wireless gateway is unreachable, but rest should be there)
I've now got a eth-pcmcia-0 device that was configued in YaST2, but I don't see that it was bridged anywhere. Is that something that I need to do or should it be done automatically? Here is the output of ifconfig:
# ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:00:E2:58:9A:5B inet addr:192.168.1.110 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::200:e2ff:fe58:9a5b/10 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST NOTRAILERS RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:1047 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:1003 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:100 RX bytes:403170 (393.7 Kb) TX bytes:127242 (124.2 Kb) Interrupt:11 Base address:0x9000 Memory:81a00000-81a00038

eth0 is my ethernet card (which is working correctly). It doesn't appear that the internal wireless card was "bridged" like you referred to. So... what do I do now?
Thanks, Branton Boehm

An excellent list focused on a different topic, but none the less filled with wireless laptop users is wireless@kismetwireless.net See the URL http://www.kismetwireless.net I suggest subscribing and asking for help there also. Besides the fact that kismet is a great tool. Remember to *not* cross post also. On (04/09/02 00:15), Branton Boehm wrote:

I do not really understand what it is you are looking for. Is your card loaded on insertion? 2 bleeps from the speaker is good. Can you see it when you do iwconfig? Is it listed by ifconfig? David On Thursday 25 September 2003 2:18 am, Michael Bartosh wrote:
