But it doesn’t work on my Medion Akoya notebook. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Try to configure wireless network on the MEDION S2210. It doesn’t matter whether one chooses "traditional method with ifup" in YaST2 and tries to setup the wireless network with YaST2 or wether one tries Networkmanager. Trying to manually setup the wireless network with "ifup", "ifconfig", "iwconfig", ... doesn’t work either. Actual Results: According to ifconfig the interface is up. If one tries to get an IP via DHCP, the interface does not get an IP. After setting a fixed IP manually, one can see that RX packets and TX packets count up in the output of ifconfig when one tries to use the interface. RX bytes also count up but TX bytes remains 0. iwconfig shows the ESSID always as the empty string. Setting it with iwconfig is not possible. Networkmanager/YaST2 apparently couldn’t set it either. iwconfig shows the bitrate as 1 Mb/s. This can be changed with iwconfig but it doesn’t help. Expected Results: Wireless network should have worked. I can confirm what is written at http://de.opensuse.org/Sparklan_wmir-215gn If I download the rt2860sta_EEEPC-1.7.1.rm.0.src.rpm from the forum mentioned, recompiled for my system and installed, wireless worked flawless. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
