I have an old laptop which has dell truemobile 1150 series PC Card, I installed openSUSE 11.3 last night and I’m not able to connect to my wireless with it. It shows available networks in the range and when I select my network it askes me the WEP key and it simple goes for ever and suddenly shows me back the input WEP key dialog.
I’m entering the right WEP key because my other laptop is connected with the same network.
Sorry for the late reply, below is the requested output
