Hi
I have installed Ubuntu 7.04 on a Asus P55-mx se mother board machine. I
have also installed a CNet cwp-854 pci wireless card in the machine.
Ubuntu picks up the card and it worked fine until i set up WPA-PSK
security on my wireless access point. Ubuntu likes only WEP.
I have downloaded the files from Ralink website and set up according to
the instructions.
However I still cannot get WPA working.
Ubuntu recognises my card as ra1 while the docs seem to think it should be
recognised as ra0. THere is a pci wired network card in the machine which
is recognised as eth0. Ubuntu does not work with the inbuilt network
interface.
Any suggestions? This machine is destined for another location with a WPA
wireless setup, so I need to make it work.
THanks for any help
Regards
Ken
