Fedora Networking :: 15 Freezes When Trying To Get Address On BCM4313
Jun 26, 2011
I have been using Fedora for some time now... but mostly on desktops without wireless cards. And it has worked great!
Now I installed it on my new Acer AO522 netbook which has the BCM4313 wifi chipset and I am running into issues.
Description: Out of the box Fedora recognizes almost all of the hardware. When I run lspci I can see the BCM4313 being detected...
But ifconfig does not show it... Ok... so I figured that the driver was not installed. So I went looking and found drivers on www.rpmfusion.org. I have tested...
broadcom-wl
akmod-wl
kmod-wl
However, all of them allow the NIC to be detected... And on the initial install I can run modprobe wl and get the wifi online and get connected. However, after a reboot... Everytime the wifi tries to get an address the system freezes... And it freezes hard.... as in no ALT+CTRL+BS... or allow me to enter console with the F-keys.

I purchased a Dell Notebook n4030, that came with the wireless adapter from Broadcom BCM4313. It's been a while since I've been battling with the Broadcom driver to make it work perfectly. I did it!
But some servers I work with wireless in my town and I need to always be changing the MAC Address of my wireless adapter. Whenever I make the change, which is in the Linux distribution is already using it, when I enter the command:
Come to me the message:
Then I give an UP interface, but after that the adapter does not get the IP address of the network.

So basically, complete linux noob here, dual-booted fedora 13 with windows 7, and fedora can't seem to detect either my wired or wireless, however i don't really care about the wired. After spending a few hours browsing forums and tutorials and the like, seems as if it is a driver issue, as in there is none. I have managed to find the files :
HTML Code:
broadcom-wl-5.60.48.36-1.fc13.noarch.rpm
kmod-wl-5.60.48.36-1.fc13.5.x86_64.rpm
[code]...

I can see the wireless networks option in NetworkManager, but I can't detect any networks.I did a fresh installation of F14. Wireless wasn't working, so I set up kmod-wl and broadcom-wl for my kernel version as per the HOWTO on this forum. lsmod | sort shows wl as loaded, no conflicting drivers.iwlist scan:"Failed to read scan data: Invalid argument"lspci shows BCM4313 802.11b/gI've tried everything I can find online, and nothing seems to be working.

I'm having issues with my broadcom BCM4313 wireless adapter. Everything works just fine when connected (with additional drivers & Connman), but it takes about 5 minutes to connect to my network when i just started my computer! When resuming from hibernation it goes very quick though, so just when I boot my pc it's taking forever...This is what I found in the dmesg output:
Code:
[ 16.778057] eth1: Broadcom BCM4727 802.11 Hybrid Wireless Controller 5.60.48.36
[ 16.808768] type=1400 audit(1295859939.727:2): apparmor="STATUS" operation="profile_load" name="/sbin/dhclient3" pid=833 comm="apparmor_parser"

I wants to ask if there is any method to configure bcm4313 wireless adaptor to monitor mode.
I need to do this for my graduate project
till this moment, what I'm sure of is that ndiswrapper doesn't support monitor mode.
Is there any way to use monitor mode on this adaptor?

Currently my OS is Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope Desktop OS and my web server is Apache2. I have a public address 60.x.y.z and my pc local address is 10.x.y.z. I have a web app in my Apache2 which currently run in localhost(10.x.y.z).
I would like to enable the web app so that it could be browse from outside. I know there maybe some port forwarding process and some commands involved in order to do that. But I have no idea on the steps to do that.

Version 10.04 LTS. Installed desktop version and network worked but I needed a static IP address and the install configures for a DHCP configured address. I tried changing to static address using the System->Preferences->Network Connections application but was unable to get the system to come up with the network up.
So I manually modified the /etc/network/interfaces and the /etc/resolv.conf files. I restart the system but when I do an ifconfig, I don't see a configured IP address on eth0 (only the loopback address). If I run /sbin/ifup eth0 everything then works fine and ifconfig shows the correct address bound to eth0.
My files are as follows:

I'm running Ubuntu 10.10 and I'm having problems trying to assign it a static IP address. No matter what I put in the Preferences->Networking area (identifying the interface as Manual)... it still will query DHCP for an address if I run the dhclient command. I'm using to using ubuntu server where I just set the IP in the interfaces config file.

I am running my own Postfix mail server. Some time ago I noticed that most email was rejected because of the server's dynamic IP address. So I got a fixed IP address. However then I noticed that some mails got rejected due to failing the reverse DNS check. So my ISP told me to get a range of IP addresses and they could then create a PTR record for one of those addresses. That is now running but it turns out that the IP address used for the PTR record is a ... dynamic IP address. So Spamhaus PBL rejects my emails again.

I am using Fedora 8 on my laptop, newly installed, I can see the network card(Linksys WPc54G v2) and Network Manager sees the wireless router, however as soon as I tell it to connect my computer freezes and I have to restart. I searched for solutions but all I found was Ubuntu problems.
Actually it seems that the trigger is when the keyring comes up and asks for a password. As soon as I start typing the pass it locks.

I have a few external IP's assigned to me by my ISP. I have IPcop as my router/firewall. I am wondering how to bind 1 of my external ip's to my internal ip address. So I do not have to port forward, etc. For Example, 77.77.77.77 to 192.168.1.123 and on the server it see's the external IP address.

Some people may need to change the mac address of their ethernet network cards. This can be easily done with fedora with command line. Just follow the steps below:
1. Log as root on a textual console (ctrl+F2) or through "su -" command in your console
2. Print your network configuration with ifconfig
[root@localhost ~]# ifconfig
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:23:8B:6A:7E:9E
inet addr:10.1.128.244 Bcast:10.1.255.255 Mask:255.255.0.0
inet6 addr: fe80::218:8bff:fedb:7e9e/64 Scope:Link
[code].....
Here, eth0 is the ethernet interface of your system. The mac address is put in red.
3. Change your mac address using the following syntax
ifconfig eth0 hw ether 00:18:8BA:7E:90
The new value (in green) must be hexadecimal
4. if you have a dhcp server that distributes the adresses automatically, then request a new adress for your eth0 interface
[root@localhost ~]# dhclient eth0
5. Now, your interface is up and have a new mac and IP addresses. This feature may be useful if the network administrator ban you according to the mac adress, for example .........

I downloaded Fedora 10 32bit and put it on a Dell Dimension 8200 to save it from the recycle bin. Everything seems to work except I cannot get an IP addr. Roadrunner is my ISP using a cable modem and a Linksys Instant Broadband Series Etherfast Cable/DSL router model BEFSR41. In system-config-network, the nic shows inactive. If I activate it a window opens saying "determining IP information for eth0". After a short time the message adds the word "failed". Using a Windows PC on the same network, I can look at the DHCP connections on the Linksys and I see the MAC addr for the PC running Fedora.
From the OS installation, /etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0 has following:
DEVICE=eth0
HWADDR=00:80:ad:d1:88:c9
ONBOOT=yes

What I am trying to do is the following: I have many IBM MT-M 6223 towers (Intel Xeon processor) that need to run a certain Fedora 9 configuration. It is working on one box, now it needs to be replicated on all of the others. What is being done is the working box is cloned, and then that image is loaded on all of the others.These boxes have 5 total Ethernet devices. There is one on-board port, and there are two 2-port expansion cards for a total of 5.
There was one initial problem out of the gate that has since been solved (or perhaps not completely). What was happening is that the boxes that received the cloned image had their Ethernet devices misnumbered. Instead of eth0 through eth4, they were numbered eth5 through eth9.This was eventually traced to the following file: /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net-config. That file contained the original settings from the box that was first cloned. It had eth0 through eth4 at the top with MAC addresses belonging the box that was the source of the cloned image. It looks like this mismatch was detected, and five more entries, numbered eth5 through eth9, got appended to the bottom with MAC addresses belonging to the new box.
Once /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net-config was deleted, and the machine rebooted, the 5 ethernet devices came up with the correct numbering (0 thru 4). /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net-config was rebuilt with the correct devname-MAC pairing.
Now for this new problem.... Part of the configuration across all these machines is that only eth3 should have an IP address. It is a static IP address set through the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth3 file. All of the other devices must NOT have any IP address. They are either not used or used only for raw Ethernet.After clearing out /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net-config, /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth3 was edited to give the new box its own unique static IP address before rebooting.Sample ifcfg-eth3 file:
Code:
DEVICE=eth3
BOOTPROTO=static

I've just reinstalled F14 with KDE rather than Gnome and I'm finding that I'm unable to assign a static IP address to my wired connection.
KDE automatically connects via DHCP, but when I go into KDE's network manager, the eth0 connection isn't listed. In fact, no wired connection is listed. If I manually add one with the correct settings (including a static IP), it switches back to DHCP upon rebooting.
How can I get around this? Should I install the networkmanager-gnome package?

We are having a cluster with couple of disk servers, compute nodes and a head node. Disk server is nfs mounted on all the compute and head nodes.
The problem is that if any of the disk servers hangs, it freezes rest of the cluster too which is dangerous. Ideally, cluster should not care about the hanged server and run without any problem except files from that server is not visible.
Is there any way I could avoid the problem of freezing cluster because of one hanged server?
