Dear all,
I can't succeed to enable WiFi USB dognle (Netgear or LM Technologies)
from the BeagleBoard xM running Angstrom Linux.
I did the following:
# iwlist wlan0 scan
# iwconfig wlan0 essid "myWifi"
# dhclient wlan0
the last one (dhclient) hangs for a while and when it completes
doesn't give the beagle an IP address.
I also get this:
# ifconfig
