Re: Linksys WMP11 no IP address

Hi,

according to the output of the 'iwconfig' command, it seems that you are 
connected to an access point which means that DriverLoader was correctly 
installed and configured. However, as you have mentioned, you have not 
obtained an IP address by DHCP for an unknown reason.

Please send at [email protected] the output of the following commands 
entered in a root shell while you are close to the access point you are 
trying to connect to.

---
dldrconfig --info
cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1
cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/keys-eth1
iwlist eth1 scanning
ifdown eth1
ifup eth1
ifconfig -a
iwconfig
ip route
ip addr
cat /etc/resolv.conf
ping www.linuxant.com -I eth1 -c 5
ping 63.246.136.80 -I eth1 -c 5
tail -n 30 /var/log/messages

This information will help us fix the problem.
