CentOS 5 Networking :: Cannot Get Wireless To Work ?
Apr 5, 2009I have just installed CentOS 5, and am new to Linux. So I don't know much about the terminal commands or much of anything else for that matter.
I'm able to get online when I plug an ethernet cable directly to the computer, but cannot get it to recognize my wireless(which I do have the drivers for, and did work previously on Windows).
The card is a Linksys WMP54GS.
I downloaded ndiswrapper-1.54 but still cannot figure out how to get this to run. As I said, I'm new, so I'm not sure what information other than that to provide, and how to access it, so you may have to guide me through that.

CentOS 5 Networking :: Static Configuration For Wireless Card ?
Apr 28, 2009I have a desktop PC with CentOS 5 installed, and a wireless card that's working well via NetworkManager.
How would I configure the wireless card statically, e. g. by editing /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wlan0?
This would be something like :
DEVICE=wlan0
BOOTPROTO=static
ONBOOT=yes
IPADDR=192.168.1.252
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
ESSID=my_essid
CHANNEL=3
But I don't know how to define the WEP key here.

CentOS 5 Networking :: Wireless Works On LiveCD But Not When Installed
May 23, 2010I've been using Linux for about 2 years now, mostly Ubuntu & derivatives, but I've also tried Fedora, Mandriva, and others. I wanted to give CentOS a try because I'm very interested in going for a Linux+ or similar certification, and so I'm looking to start learning how to configure & maintain Linux servers and so on. I have a friend who's a Linux sysadmin, and he recommended CentOS as a good learning tool.
Anyway, I've only got a wireless connection in my office at home (the actual cable modem is downstairs) so I intentionally chose a wireless adapter that would work with Linux -- it has a Realtek RLT8187 chip, for which there is support built into the kernel, or so I've read. It has worked out of the box in just about every distro I've tried, and indeed it worked OOTB when I tried out the CentOS 5.5 live CD.
However, when I actually installed the CentOS to my hard drive it no longer worked -- I have only a greyed out option for a wired connection (presumably since my motherboard has an ethernet adapter, but there is no connection). Why the wireless would work in the live session but not after install? Is there a firmware file or something I need to track down? I did look on this page, but it doesn't mention anything about RTL8187.

When I do the query I get a response "unable to open modem". I have tried going back through the PPP setup but still get the same response.

CentOS 5 Networking :: Rt61 PCI Wireless: Freeze Upon Shutdown With Static IP Configuration
Jun 24, 2009I have one desktop PC I'd like to use as a jukebox. It's installed in the basement as a black box, with only SSH access, and it has got a minimal CentOS 5.3 install with MPD and NCMPC. It's connected to the hi-fi in the basement, so I can stream music to it when I'm downstairs. Since I didn't want to use cables everywhere, I bought a PCI wireless card, with a RT2561 chip.
Until recently this card worked OK with Linux. Recent kernel version even have out-of-the-box support for it, except of course you still have to download the firmware from the Ralinktech website.
I gave the thing a static IP configuration by editing /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wlan0, interface went up fine, I can ping the machine and SSH into it OK. Now the only problem is, when I do a shutdown -h now, the machine "hangs" while trying to bring wlan0 down. (In case you wonder: I temporarily attached a monitor to it, since wanting to know what goes on while shutting down in an SSH session is a chicken-and-egg situation :)). I actually have to hard-reboot it (by pressing RESET).
CentOS 5 Networking :: The OS Locks Up When Attempting To Activate A Wireless Realtek Card (pci)

CentOS 5 Networking :: Find A Driver For Wireless Card (Atheros AR928X)?
Jan 5, 2010I'm trying to find a driver for my wireless card (Atheros AR928X) and I think it's ath9k what I need. As far as I know there isn't a linux driver for it, so I installed ndiswrapper to use a windows driver instead. The problem is that when I type modprobe ndiswrapper I get "bash: modprobe: command not found" (even as root). I know I'm missing something about modprobe, but I can't find any help on google. Anyway, I installed ndisgtk next, because I thought it would be easier, but when I go to System> Administration> Windows Wireless Drivers I get a message "Unknown error".Do you have any ideas on how I'll make ndiswrapper work?
