Hi,

I have a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo M7400 Notebook. The Wireless card was
detected and iwconfig says that eth1 is a wireless card.
iwconfig output:
eth1      IEEE 802.11b  ESSID:"XXX"  Nickname:"ipw2100"
          Mode:Managed  Channel:0  Access Point: 00:00:00:00:00:00
          Bit Rate=0kb/s   Tx-Power=32 dBm
          Retry:on   RTS thr=2304 B   Fragment thr:off
          Power Management:off
          Link Quality:0  Signal level:0  Noise level:158
          Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
          Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0
After setting the correct ESSID and WEP Key i start:
dhclient eth1
Output:
sit0: unknown hardware address type 776
sit0: unknown hardware address type 776
Listening on LPF/eth1/00:04:23:97:df:0f
Sending on   LPF/eth1/00:04:23:97:df:0f
Sending on   Socket/fallback
DHCPDISCOVER on eth1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 7
DHCPDISCOVER on eth1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 10


But i don't get an IP-Adress. The wireless card seems to be runnig because
the LED is blinking. The Gnome-Applet for Wireless Devices says "No wireless
device"
Can you help me?
