unable to connect to wifi
 
Hi,

weired problem: when I try to connect to ANY wireless (to which I was previously able to connect), the icon starts flashing as usual (to say connecting), then disappears, without any connection. in other words:
1- click on wireless icon
2- select any network
3- click "connect"
4- icon flashing
5- icon off; no connection.


Note: this only occurs from the boot from the memory card; internal flash connects as usual. Is there a way to fix this without loosing my mmc boot?

thank you

Ilia

Re: unable to connect to wifi
 
I did have an odd problem where I could connect to wireless AP and it would sort of work but eventually drop out. I discovered that manually creating my own /etc/resolv.conf was a bad idea, and it ended up with some odd settings in /etc/resolv.d (or something like that). I rm'd the files, restarted wifi and it worked.
Not that this might be the same problem as you, but worth checking!
