5.0.1 sees eth0 as wireless sometimes (but it isn't!)
Hi folks,
Running 5.0.1 on a Fedora Core 5 Thinkpad T30 that has eth0 (Ethernet card, Intel EtherExpress/100) and eth1 (an Aironet wireless card.) I see these on the box when I boot natively into Fedora Core 5, so I'm pretty sure that eth0 is ETH and eth1 is wireless. 
I run netcardcofnig on eth0 and plug in my static values. THEN it asks for wireless parameters. Huh?
No matter what I do (empty parms, parms chock full o' data...), I can't connect to the network.
Over the past few days, I've been able to do 'something' to occasionally connect. But I can't repro the steps. I've tried all of the various scenarios I can think of, and it seems that writing the steps down ensures that the connection attempt will fail. Wouldn't ya just know it!
- ping 127.0.0.1 works fine.
- Configuring as DHCP gives me a "Failed" error after a few moments
If this NEVER worked, well, that'd be one thing.
Ideas on what I might try/look at?
Thanks,
Whil
