SuSE 10.1 "no route to host" on wlan1 card, but eth0 working great
I've installed 10.1 twice now and gotten the same results both times.
On my wired ethernet interface (eth0) I can access local network and internet.
On my wireless pc-card (wlan1) I can access internet but NOT local network.
I have tried removing configuration for eth0 and setting default gateway to my router.
I just dont get it. This worked great in 10.0 but now it's whacked. I am using NetworkManager and I can't ping any local ips other than my router. I can't even load router configuration pages using wifi. Since I want to use my desktop's scanner and printer this will not do. I've included the output of route -en below for t-shooting help.
I've gotten this same result on two different wifi cards both using the Marvell Libetas chipsets.

Help!

I seem to remember having a similar issue in suse 9.3 I found i was able to resolve it by disabling the ethernet port (# ifconfig eth0 down). Not very elegant. You might also want to check the wireless router settings, if the rest of your network is wired it may be set up not to allow wireless access to it (have only seen that once before).

I have completely disabled the ethernet port and the problem remains. It's odd that this error appears in 10.1 on the same system that ran 10.0 and I used to have access to BOTH ethernet and wifi. Any other ideas?
EDITED: I decided to try something a few moments ago and it resolved the issue. I thought I'd post this here for any others that may encounter the same troubles. I entered Yast and edited the configuration for my wireless adapter. I took it it OFF auto-ip and mandated my own IP and subnet mask. This leads me to think that the issue is related to the NetworkManager not assigning a proper netmask (255.255.255.0) I will try to located a way to correct this.

Ok I edited the configuration file for my wifi adapter (/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-wlan-bus-pcmcia) added the proper netmask for my network configuration and restarted network. It's routing properly now. I don't know why the NetworkManager is not inserting a proper netmask. Hope this helps anyone else that may encounter this issue.
