Hi
Im running slack 9.1 and trying to connect to my netgear router via the netgear wg311 wireless card. I can get the card up and bind it with the router. Problem is, i cant give it an IP
this command always report a 'host lookup failure'
Code:
ifconfig ath0 net 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0
'ifconfig ath0 address 192.168.0.1' errors the same . .
and
Code:
dhclient ath0
always reports that it doesn't know any component ath0.
Has anyone got any ideas to help me get further please. I think this can only work if the router to gives me the address via dhcp. I feel like im nearly there now . .
