I have kubuntu breezy 5.10 with kde3.5 running. I have wlan0 in home
with also provision for wired network. I configured net work by using
method given in http://www.vollink.com/gary/deb_wifi.html. It had
problem with wpasupplicant regarding conf file. By giving explicitely
with -c in /etc/default/wpasupplicant , I could make it work. However
today I face other problem. same DHCP server from the router assigns
diffrent network address for eth0 anf wlan0. for wlan0, it assigned as
192.168.0.0 as seen below
Jan 30 11:32:47 localhost dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on wlan0 to
255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 4
Jan 30 11:32:47 localhost ifplugd(wlan0)[7013]: client: DHCPDISCOVER
on wlan0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 4
Jan 30 11:32:47 localhost dhclient: DHCPOFFER from 192.168.0.1
Jan 30 11:32:47 localhost dhclient: DHCPREQUEST on wlan0 to
255.255.255.255 port 67
Jan 30 11:32:47 localhost ifplugd(wlan0)[7013]: client: DHCPOFFER from
192.168.0.1
Jan 30 11:32:47 localhost ifplugd(wlan0)[7013]: client: DHCPREQUEST on
wlan0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67
Jan 30 11:32:47 localhost dhclient: DHCPACK from 192.168.0.1
Jan 30 11:32:47 localhost ifplugd(wlan0)[7013]: client: DHCPACK from 192.168.0.1
Jan 30 11:32:47 localhost dhclient: bound to 192.168.0.100 -- renewal
in 240497 seconds.
Jan 30 11:32:47 localhost ifplugd(wlan0)[7013]: client: bound to
192.168.0.100 -- renewal in 240497 seconds.
Jan 30 11:32:47 localhost ifplugd(wlan0)[7013]: Program executed successfully.
But router network is configured as 192.168.1.0. Hence i could not
access internet.
However with eth0, I got as follows
Jan 30 11:57:51 localhost dhclient: DHCPDISCOVER on eth0 to
255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 4
Jan 30 11:57:51 localhost ifplugd(eth0)[7006]: client: DHCPDISCOVER on
eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 4
Jan 30 11:57:51 localhost dhclient: DHCPOFFER from 192.168.1.1
Jan 30 11:57:51 localhost dhclient: DHCPREQUEST on eth0 to
255.255.255.255 port 67
Jan 30 11:57:51 localhost ifplugd(eth0)[7006]: client: DHCPOFFER from
192.168.1.1
Jan 30 11:57:51 localhost ifplugd(eth0)[7006]: client: DHCPREQUEST on
eth0 to 255.255.255.255 port 67
Jan 30 11:57:51 localhost dhclient: DHCPACK from 192.168.1.1
Jan 30 11:57:51 localhost ifplugd(eth0)[7006]: client: DHCPACK from 192.168.1.1
Jan 30 11:57:51 localhost dhclient: bound to 192.168.1.103 -- renewal
in 37588 seconds.
Jan 30 11:57:51 localhost ifplugd(eth0)[7006]: client: bound to
192.168.1.103 -- renewal in 37588 seconds.
Jan 30 11:57:51 localhost ifplugd(eth0)[7006]: client: SIOCDELRT: No
such process
Jan 30 11:57:51 localhost ifplugd(eth0)[7006]: client: Failed to bring up eth0.
Jan 30 11:57:51 localhost ifplugd(eth0)[7006]: Program executed successfully
Why such thing happens. any solution?
