zyd doubt

hello,

i've compiled the kernel using zyd and, with my SMCWUSB-G, on booting or pluggin the usbstick i obtain:

Code:
zyd0: <SMC USB2.0 WLAN, class 255/255 (etc..)
zyd0: HMAC (etc..) address 00:(etc..)
zyd0: Ethernet address: 00:22:2d:0d:3b:a3
i've used ifconfig zyd0 up scan and nothing happens :\

what am i doing wrong?

(im still a newbie :S)
 
update:

:arrow: well i've managed to configure things properly (loading some wlan modules to the kernel) and i've already found my wifi network, then i've executed:

ifconfig zyd0 ssid MySSID wepmode on wepkey 1 1:0x1231231234

and i get:

Code:
ifconfig: SIOCS80211: Invalid argument

any ideas?

:arrow: when also using inet 192.128.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 i get:

Code:
inet: bad value

any idea?

thank you in advance!
 
it is 7.x

i've already managed to associate zyd0 to the router but i cannot get de ip address.. it halts on the DHCPDISCOVER :\
 
it sends multiple DHCPDISCOVER packets but never obtains a valid IP...

when i run wpa_supplicant -i zyd0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf e halts and does nothing :\
 
i've changed to wep but when i run, the status is associated but when i run

dhclient zyd0 it does not recieve DHCPOFFERS.

any help?
 
GOT IT!!

i dont know how to add [Solved] to the topic, gonna write a guide on putting zyd working on 7.x (with those crappy usb wifi sticks]
