Hi!
First of all I would to apologize if this issue looks similar to the previously posted threads.
I have:
- OpenSuse 11.2 64 bit version installed from scratch (no update or so)
- Vigor N61 USB-WLAN stick RALink 2870 chipset
- Fritz Box 7141, access WPA-PSK protected
After installing the OpenSuse 11.2 OS I tried to setup the WLAN in two different ways (first via NetworkManager and after that via the traditional ifup … way yast2 offers, because the first solution didn’t work). In both cases it wasn’t possible to connect to the FritzBox. The funny thing about that is, that you see the connect attempts in the FritzBox log which fails. The rest of this strange connect problems looks pretty much identical to the other postings. I tried several times to setup the correct password but I am not sure about what the network layer of the new 11.2 distribution transmits really to the FritzBox. Nevertheless: the password is correct because it works properly with Windows 7.
At the end you will find the appropriate outputs of NetworkManager, dmesg, iwconfig, iwlist.
Has anybody any idea, what is going wrong right here?
Are there any known workarounds for this problem?
Are there already any patches which solves this problem?
Thanks in advance for your help!
