Re: interesting wireless card and linux issue

[Vinod Kumar <vinu () hiwaay net>]

Hi

Had a similar issue with a wireless card on a suse machine trying to  
connect to the wireless, it could ping the router, just not get out to  
the internet.  This however was connecting to a airport base station.   
What we tried doing was giving it a static IP address.  This worked,  
try that and see if it works.



This is Vinod, and thats how the cookie crumbles.
