"No Network Running" error Message on OpenSuse 11.1.

I just installed Suse 11.1 and during the installation it showed a error message ‘No Network running’ I hit OK and the installation continued until the end without any problem. On booting I notice that that the USB Aircard that I use to connect to Internet was detected correctly and was setup axactly as it did on Suse 11.0 but when I tried to connect tha Knetwork manager stalled, no connection a all, error notification ‘No Network Running’
I ran ‘/usr/bin/lsusb’ and here is the result: bus 002 Device 003: ID 1199:0120 Sierra Wireless, Inc AC595U. I need help urgenly. Any input it would be appreciated.

I 've had the exact same problem the error message during installation
And I can’t seem to get it running
I have an Intel 3945ABG

Yes I read and tried to use the article you have mantion in your reply but didn’t help much in setting my USB AirCard. I also tried the intructions posted on Ububtu forums with the same results. My guess is that the problem is to with the Knetwork Manager, but until now no ansewers.

I suspect tha the problem with the Aircard is that there is no driver, but until
you post your USB IDs, I can do nothing.

For the 3945, try the following:

sudo modprobe iwl3945
sudo modprobe iwl3945 disable_hw_scan=1

If those commands make it work, you can eliminate having to keep reentering
those commands every time you reboot, open the file /etc/modprobe.conf.local as
root and add the line

options iwl3945 disable_hw_scan=1

Sorry I missed the IDs in your first message. The USB ID’s 1199:0120 do not
correspond to any Linux wireless driver. You will need to obtain the Windows
driver (32 or 64 bit, depending on what flavor of Linux you use), install the
ndiswrapper package from openSUSE and configure it. Search for ndiswrapper in
this forum to get links on how to do that.

Larry,

Thank you for your replay. I will follow your suggestion with ndiswrapper but what realy puzzle me is why on Suse 11.0 the Aircard worked perfectly and now with 11.1 is so problematic to get it set.
