Good Morning from Chicago!
I have been trying to install a wireless network for a while under suse 9 pro, that I bought a few weeks ago. I'm having trouble getting my wireless card working.

this is my ifcfg_wlan0:
BOOTPROTO='static' MTU='' REMOTE_IPADDR='' STARTMODE='onboot' DHCLIENT_MODIFY_RESOLV_CONF='yes' DHCLIENT_SET_DEFAULT_ROUTE='yes' DHCLIENT_PRIMARY_DEVICE='yes' UNIQUE='' WIRELESS_ESSID='OhrockNet' WIRELESS_KEY='' WIRELESS_MODE='Ad-hoc' WIRELESS_NICK='' WIRELESS_NWID=''
Change BOOTPROTO='static' to 'dhcp' Also if you are connecting to an AP then WIRELESS_MODE should be 'Managed' Here is what mine looks like. BOOTPROTO='dhcp' MTU='' REMOTE_IPADDR='' STARTMODE='onboot' UNIQUE='' WIRELESS_ESSID='any' WIRELESS_KEY='' WIRELESS_MODE='Managed' WIRELESS_NICK='' WIRELESS_NWID='' In case you are wondering setting ESSID to 'any' allows me to connect to any available open AP. Nice when you are traveling and the hotel has wireless access.
