One issue I see is that you are using ndiswrapper and a broadcom wireless. At lease since 10.2, SuSE and other versions of Linux have a native broadcom driver. Additionally, you would need to get the latest version of fwcutter, and install the firmware, usually into /lib/firmware either under the kernel of into /lib/firmware/b43. I no longer run SuSE on my laptop (because of a work requirement to use Ubuntu), but when it ran SuSE 10.2 I found the native driver to work rather well, and more reliably than ndiswrapper. IMHO, you should run ndiswrapper only if you have no other option.
First, please don't top post on this list. Second, I've used ndiswrapper for years and never had this problem. Its utterly reliable. The problem is appearing at dhcp renewal time. Machine changes its name (a dhcp option that should not be used), and this causes all sorts of issues of connectivity. -- ----------JSA--------- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
