Hello,

I have a wireless DLink G520.
With command lspci I see :

00:08.0 Network controller: Texas Instruments ACX 111
54Mbps Wireless Interface

The interface is with interface sit0

I need configure it, in wireless network with WEP
auth, and DHCP Server.

I tried this commands:

debian:~# iwconfig sit0 essid Corporation
Error for wireless request "Set ESSID" (8B1A) :
SET failed on device sit0 ; Invalid argument.

debian:~# iwconfig sit0 key Corporation
Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A) :
invalid argument "chave"

I tried type dhclient sit0, but the process can't get
a new IP over DHCP.

I'm lost, How I can to resolve it ?

Ps : I'm using Devian Testing (whith all updates).

Best regards,

Faria

The first hit of a Google search for "linux Texas Instruments ACX 111" is the
SourceForge page for the acx100 driver (ACX100/ACX111/TNETW1450) [1].

A search of Debian packages for "acx100" [2] then shows that the source has been
packaged for Debian Sarge, Etch, Lenny and Sid.

Armed with this information you can install the approriate acx100 package in the
normal way (Aptitude, Synaptic, etc) and build the driver using
"module-assistant". A full guide for doing this is on the NewbieDOC wiki [3].
It's quite easy. :-)

Good luck!

Make sure that sit0 really is the name of the device.

I do not understand what you are doing in the above....

My wireless network is configured as follows:

Name of the Network (configured on the router): foo-net
Encryption: WEP
First WEP-Key: 1BA45646

Thus, as root you type the following:
# iwconfig sit0 essid foo-net key 1BA45646
# dhclient sit0

On my system "essid" is not alway set propererly therefore
check with by doing iwconfig sit0.
