<quote> ... status: no carrier ... </quote> Sometimes this means the card has been turned off. My computer has a little switch on it that enables me to turn it off. If you run: # ifconfig ath0 scan and you can see your access point then there is no problem with your card; but if it does not show up then there is a physical problem with your card (broken? turned off?) or your access point is down. As a simple test, can you bring up your access point wide open and connect to it? If you can then the problem might be related to your ifconfig statement. I am surprised to see such a long wep key. You might try simplifying your statemnt and avoid the "wepkey" keyword. I spent probably a week with that keyword and it simply didn't work. A helpful responder in the mailing lists suggest I use instead the "nwkey" keyword. Man, it was almost like magic. I was sure I had done everything right - and I had; but "wepkey" for some reason didn't work. It's there in the manpage for ifconfig. Give it a whirl. Good luck. ====== Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and extol and honor the King of heaven, for all his works are truth, and his ways are justice; and he is able to bring low those who walk in pride.
