Default connecting to wifi accesspoint..
Dear all,

I have been using Debian squeeze and i am not able to connect to wifi accesspoint. I have lenovo laptop with BCM 4312 wireless card. I have installed BCM driver and I can see wireless extnsions for eth1 on iwconfig command.

But while connecting to wifi, gives an error showing "Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A) :* SET failed on device eth1 ; Invalid argument"

How to solve this error.

Thanks and regards,
Sudheendra

I see you get error for eth1, but I as far as I can see your wireless is at
eth0 - you have IP address 192.168.1.2, which is pretty popular internal
IP-space for routers and accesspoints. Did you set interface name in your
connection program by hands? Maybe you should change it to eth0?

Also, please set up your mail client properly so messages would be sent in
plain text - your previous message contained symbols like &nbsp; and &amp;
which makes it really difficult - if possible at all - to read.

I think it should be the argument "Encode" not supported by the driver.
But in "man iwconfig",there is no "Encode" option,what does it do? If
it's private parameter,you can try "iwpriv" command.

iwpriv - configure optionals (private) parameters of a wireless network
interface
