Zew1630 wireless pci adapter not working

**TuxXin** · 06-11-2008

I'm having an issue getting my new zonet zew1630 to work. I heard this card works out of the box with most distros, and I wanted to set it up on my computer, so I could move it into the next room. My computer is running archlinux. I've tired running the rt61 drivers, which the archwiki and a few other sites say is the correct driver. After installing the rt61 module I ran:

Code:

 modprobe rt61

Running iwlist scanning shows two routers:

Code:

# iwlist scanning
lo        Interface doesn't support scanning.

eth0      Interface doesn't support scanning.

wmaster0  Interface doesn't support scanning.

I want to connect to the router called 'TRAINSTATION', and I know the wep key.

Code:

iwconfig wlan0 essid TRAINSTATION key **********
dhcpcd wlan0

(The wep key is stared out, that isn't what I actually put in)

If I run iwconfig I get this:

Code:

 iwconfig

eth0      no wireless extensions.

wmaster0  no wireless extensions.

I can't access the internet with my wireless connection though. I'm not very good with linux, so if someone could help me with this, I would appreciate it.

also, what is the encryption type of the network you are trying to access WEP or WPA?
also post the output of lspci here.

EDIT: i did some research and it seems that your card should work perfectly with linux because the ralink driver is fully integrated with the linux kernel.
try installing wicd. It will simplify your search.

Ya, that's what I thought. I read somewhere before I bought it that the drivers are intergrated into the linux kernel.
I tried using the tool you suggested, but it still doesn't work. It says I am connected, but I don't obtain an ip. Setting a static ip doesn't help either

This seems to be the problem.
try doing:
Code:

# modprobe -r r61

Code:

# modprobe r61

then post:
Code:

$ dmesg |tail

to see if the driver loaded as it should.

Any ideas? I have to move this tower tonight, so I would like to get this working before then.

According to the last lsmod you posted, it looks like you have a duplicate or conflicting module loaded. I believe that the rt61 and rt61pci are different drivers. If I recall correctly, the rt61pci is the native kernel driver. The rt61 is a driver that you compile and add seperately. You may want to remove both of them, and then re-add the one that you want. My guess is the rt61, since it was added later.

It's working now. It turns out the driver didn't work. A friend suggested that I install the latest from CVS. I then followed your advise, and removed rt61pci. It's working flawlessly now. I just need to do this on my secondary distro now... :S

Thanks for the advise
