I've set up the file ifcfg-wlan0 with my IP address (192.168.1.2), the
address of the router (192.168.1.254), I wrote static instead of dhcp
and I set to yes the "on boot" option.

...but my wireless it does't work ! It is strange because the led on the
card is a solid green !

In particolary at  boot time appears the messagge "wlan-0 is not
present. The activation is posticipated" (translation from italian !!!!)

Please don't leave me alone !

Laura

Hi Laura,

you can set all your network-specific values in

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wlan0

Hope that helps.

Ciao
Matthias
