Just after turn on laptop, wireless works for few seconds and then it is down.
When I change configuration to ifup, then I see error:


# ifup wlan0

    wlan0     name: Broadcom WLAN controller
command 'iwconfig wlan0 power off' returned
Error for wireless request "Set Power Management" (8B2C) :
    SET failed on device wlan0 ; Operation not supported.
DHCP4 client is already running on wlan0
DHCP6 client is already running on wlan0

Unfortunately I have no network access becouse of two interfaces problem, only USB and OpenSUSE DVD.

I found this suggestion:

Changing the power management setting in /etc/sysconfig/network/ifconfig-wlan* to “none” seems to sort it.

Here: http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-technical-help-here/wireless/469447-flaky-wireless-power-management.html

Might be worth a try. When I looked at my file it says WIRELESS_POWER=‘no’ and not none as suggested above. I have a nice bash script you can use to edit this file as root you can find here:

SYSEdit - System File Editor - Version 1.00 - Blogs - openSUSE Forums

Thank You,

Wait for any further help as I move this to the Wireless forum.

Thank You,

I felt you might get a better response in the Wireless forum on this subject based on the information that you had in your message.

Thank You,

You need to get working one of the cards and then update the system.
These are the working drivers:

try to install these packages:
compat-wireless

broadcom-wl

Do you happen to know how to get working Nvidia graphics gard?
