Hi All,

I got Sony Vaio VGN-B88GP It has Intel (R) Pro/Wireless 2200BG onboard, Even though I followed instructions to install its firlware and drivers, It shows up in Hardware Browser but when I want to create a new connection It shows this device as a ethernet card instead of wireless card and it has no properties to make it on wireless network. All sort of help will be appriciated.

Thanks
Rajan

Assuming you have your modules installed correctly .. Try doing a this ..
[ilaiy@ilaiy]$ /sbin/lsmod | grep ipw
ipw2100 85241 0
ieee80211 22341 1 ipw2100
[ilaiy@ilaiy]$


/sbin/iwconfig eth1 essid <nameofnetwork> key=<wepkey>

See if you get an IP address .. If you donot .. use

/sbin/dhclient -r
/sbin/dhclient eth1

All the best

./thanks
