Wireless not working: SUSE 10.2. Help!!

[EsmeQ]

Hi there;

I have just installed SUSE 10.2 on my laptop. I am new to linux, but have been reading plenty of forums, so know my way round a little now. Yet, whatever I do, I can't make the wireless work.

I have a Belkin 802.11g wireless card; when I plug it in SUSE recognises it and I am able to run configuration in YAsT without any problems. However, no matter how I set the parameters, it will not connect to the network.

I do have encryption on my wireless; however, having set it up on many different computers, I am sure I have all the settings down right.

Basically, there doesn't seem to be a driver problem, and there doesn't seem to be a network problem. I have tried running iwconfig in the Gnome terminal, and this confirms that the card is recognised by SUSE.

I have completely run out of ideas and could do with some help.....

Many thanks in advance.

EsmeQ.

Hi, i'm having exactly the same problem with my belkin adapter aswell and it's really annoying me. Just had a little search on the internet and someone changed there routers security to a wep hex key rather then wpa passphrase and then changed there broadcast channel. Gonna try this when i get back from work, if this fails then i'm going back to windows!

I know this doesn't help you, but i figured I'd throw my issue in the mix and someone can give us all a good resource on this.

I've got an 11a/b/g WIreless LAN Mini PCI Adapter manufactured by Atheros Communications in my Lenovo T41P laptop. I've downloaded the drivers from MadWifi and followed their instructions, but I still can't do anything with it...
