Hi, I am running FC3/XP dual boot with a Dell 1450 USB wireless adapter using ndiswrapper. Been working fine for the better part of 2 days. Then all of a sudden when I boot FC3 I dont have a connection. I check the network devices and it says that my wlan0 is inactive. I become root, try and activate it and it gives me this error...
"Device wlan0 has a differnt MAC address than expected. ignoring...." and I cant get it to work. This only happens some of the times too. It sometimes happens while I have already been connected for a while, then it will just stop working and I find that my device has been inactivated. I have tried to manually put in the MAC address and it still doesnt work. I Dont know what it could be! Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated!
