Wireless Interface Enabled?

I hope someone can help me please...
When I go to set up the AX I get this message while trying to use the setup assistant. Can someone please tell me what this means? I have a linkys router that works great ith my MacBook Pro. Thanks in advance.
"This compuer has no wireless interface enabled or Windows is not set up to manage wirless networks on this computer"
HELP!

"This compuer has no wireless interface enabled or Windows is not set up to manage wirless networks on this computer"
That would mean that either this computer does not have wireless capability or it's wireless is turned off. It could also mean that the native WinXP wireless utility has been usurped by a third-party version...for example vendors like Dell will provide a wireless management utility with their wireless-equipped laptops.

Automatically shutdown wireless interface, out of office hours.

Hi,
I have a Cisco 870 Wireless-Router.
I would like to turn the wireless interface off between 9pm and 8am when it's not being used.
Is there a way this can be done automatically.
i.e. shutdown 802.11 interface via a routine job (or maybe via .TCL script)
Any help appreciated.
Thanks
Matt

Hi All,
I have the answer to my own question.
(if anyone's interested)
It can be done ! By disabling the radio interface via EEM configuration.
thankfully I don't have to configure .tcl scripts.
......... here's my config .........
event manager applet ENABLE-RADIO
event timer cron name WeekdayStart cron-entry "00 8 * *"
action 1.0 cli command "enable"
action 1.1 cli command "configure term"
action 1.2 cli command "interface Dot11Radio0"
action 1.3 cli command "no shut"
event manager applet DISABLE-RADIO
event timer cron name WeekdayStart cron-entry "00 6 * *"
action 1.0 cli command "enable"
action 1.1 cli command "configure term"
action 1.2 cli command "interface Dot11Radio0"
action 1.3 cli command "shut"

Setting wireless interface mode with PRO/Wireless 4965 AGN

I'm trying to set my laptop's wireless interface to run in Ad-Hoc mode. Currently the interface is in managed mode
[root@nathan-laptop /]# iwconfig wlan0

Link Quality=100/100 Signal level:-55 dBm Noise level=-95 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0

When trying to change it I get the following error:
[root@nathan-laptop /]# iwconfig wlan0 mode ad-hoc
Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) :
SET failed on device wlan0 ; Operation not supported.
To add the the mystery when I boot from an arch live cd I am able to change the wireless interface's mode. I'm using the latest iwlwifi-4965-ucode firmware as well as the iwlagn kernel module.
Does anybody know what the problem is?

The problem seems to have resolved itself after updating the kernel.

Macbook Pro - no wireless interface

I have a unibody macbook pro, trying to get the wireless to work but the wiki seems to have brought me to a dead end.
According to this:
$ lspci -vnn | grep 14e4
02:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5764M Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:1684] (rev 10)
Subsystem: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5764M Gigabit Ethernet PCIe [14e4:1684]
03:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM43224 802.11a/b/g/n [14e4:4353] (rev 01)
I have a BCM43224, which uses the brcmsmac driver. According to the wiki, this driver is included in the kernel and requires no setup at all.
But the wireless interface doesn't come up when I do this:
$ ip link
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 16436 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN
link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00

link/ether 58:b0:35:fd:07:94 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
I'm not sure what more I should post, but here's the output from hwdetect:
$ hwdetect --show-net
NET : libphy tg3 bluetooth mac80211 rfkill cfg80211
I don't know what any of those mean, other than bluetooth
Surely I must be missing something simple if this driver is supposed to "just work", right?

And here's the relevant wiki troubleshooting guide that suggests the blacklisting mentioned in the previous post. I mention this because the wiki also says:
Now, rebuild the initramfs image and everything should work as expected.
# mkinitcpio -p linux
So, I did this and it doesn't seem to have worked. The link that karol pointed to says this:
To see if you were successful, execute
grep bcma /proc/modules
If there is no output, then blacklisting was successful.
But there was output:
$ grep bcma /proc/modules
bcma 11198 0 - Live 0xfb5f5000
So apparently the blacklisting was unsuccessful.

Shutdown wireless interface via SNMP Write?

Hi
We're working on writing a very simple web app to control a couple of access points via SNMP. I'm trying to shutdown the Wireless interface via SNMP WRITE with the following oid;
.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.7.1
and
.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.7.2
But its saying the integer of '0' is invalid (badValue, wrong type or length). I'm able to set other values like hostname, etc, so I know my string is correct...can anyone help? THanks
Jason

Hi
Just found my own answer...the value to shutdown the interface is not 0, it's 2. durrr
Thanks

How to automatically disable the wireless interface when the LAN interface is connected

Hi,
Is there a way to automatically disable the wireless interface when the LAN interface is connected on R61s and X61s?
Thank you!

Hi,
Thanks for the answer. I'm trying to deploy the profile that I've created on all my laptops. But i'm facing an issue for a while.
When the profile is deployed on a laptop, Access Connections finds a new ethernet port and asks to assign it a profile. But the problem is that Access Connection don't allow me to assign it to my wired profile, only to my wireless profile and that doesn't make sens to me. Besides, it is written in the dialogue box that ethernet profiles are disable for the match of the new port...
Is there any way to assign the new port to the new profile without human interaction or just how to make the wired profile available when access connection is launched and find a new ethernet connection
Thanks in advance!

Get Wireless Interface Name/Description

Hello,
Here is the code I am using. I'd like to get the name/description of the Wireless Interface and parse it to get the Wireless protocol (A, B, G, N) being used.
results = NetworkInfo.networkInfo.findInterfaces();
for (var i:int =0; i<results.length; i++) {
ethName = ethName + results[i].name;
macAddress = macAddress + results[i].hardwareAddress.toString();
I get this for the name when I run this code:
E9742B69-3B80-471A-AF41-B38753474834
Can anyone help me?
Thanks!

Hi greg humphrey
You can down load a osax called XNetwork from here: (down load the binary)
http://www.lestang.org/article49.html
place it in:

Wicd-cli: how to specify wireless interface wlan0?

How do you specifiy the wireless interface in wicd-cli?
In wicd-gtk, you go to Preferences and type wlan0 in the Wireless interface field.
In wicd-curses, you press uppercase P for Preferences and type wlan0 in the Wireless Interface field.

This information is available in the Admin guide. Here is one:

Adding a wireless interface

when i had arch installed before, i had set up my laptop with a wired connection, without trouble. later on, i added a wireless connection (eth1) and i don't recall that being too much of a problem. now, i'm using arch again, on a wired connection, and i need to add a wireless connection, but i've completely forgotten how i did it before. i've looked at the wireless wiki page and none of it looks at all familiar, and frankly, i don't really understand it either. i have an ipw2200.

Look again, the wireless wiki tells you exactly what to do. Forget that you did anythin before, just read it as a newbie. To summarise, you have to know which device has wireless extensions by running iwconfig. To do that, you may have to carry out pre-initialising steps like loading firmware or setting up ndiswrapper. After that it's all about finding a way to connect eg. netcfg or wicd.

Troubles configuring wireless interface on 1811W.

Hello to all
I have the following issue: I managed to configure the Wlan radio interface of a 1811W and I am using WPA2/PSK. But even I connect to the router via wireless it seems that there is no communication between the computer and the other interfaces; also DHCP is not assigning me an IP.
I should mention that I am not a cisco expert but I like to think that I have some sort of knowledge in IP networks. Can someone enlighten me?

Ok I have found 1 bug but the issue is not entirely solved.
Instead:
ip dhcp pool DHCP_PoolN
   network 192.168.23.0 255.255.255.128
   default-router 192.168.123.126
   dns-server 8.8.8.8
It should be:
ip dhcp pool DHCP_PoolN
   network 192.168.123.0 255.255.255.128
   default-router 192.168.123.126
   dns-server 8.8.8.8
Now I get an IP address but I have no routing to the other interfaces.
I can ping only
BVI3 (192.168.123.126)
Any ideeas?

E4200v2: Local Management Access via Wireless *ALWAYS* Enabled

I just found a slightly unsettling bug in the E4200v2 (running the latest firmware 2.0.36 build 126507).
Administration > Local Management Access > Access via Wireless ... set to DISABLED.
HOWEVER, when I attempted to access the web interface on a handy iPAD I had absolutely no problem getting through to the web interface (after providing username and passsword).
Limiting access to wired clients seems like a simple a prudent measure ... which is why this option is there for the paranoid among us.
This seems like a black-and-white bug. Comments welcome. Fix in the next firmware revisio even more welcome.

It was mentioned in another thread that disabling wireless management does indeed disable http access over port 80. However, if you're using https access--which uses port 443, that access is not blocked. So for anyone who wants to disable wireless management access, you need to enable management access via http only, and then disable the wireless access. That combination will indeed work.
I have confirmed this on my own router and can now only manage via wired connections over http.
Strange bug/oversight!

Issue while creating a enhancement window with Interface enabled check

Hello everyone,
i have a standard webdynpro component "fmca_wdy_return" to enhance. The component is one the applications configured in floor plan manager "FPM_OIF_COMPONENT".
we have created a tab on the FPM view and we need to configure the wda component window onto this view. The problem is when i create a new window as an enhancement in the wda component(FMCA_WDY_RETURN) it does not enable the interface check in the properties tab, if the interface is not checked we can configure the window in the FPM.
can someone explain the enhancement window is not interface check enabled? how can it be enabled? or is there any other solution for this?
Thanks.

Hi Suri
I've just encountered the same situation. Did you find a solution?

[solved] hostapd and Assigning IP to Wireless Interface.

I am using a raspberrypi as a portable WiFi hotspot. This has been working fine until a recent update and I am not sure why it is broken. I have a service that assigns and IP address to the wlan0 interface before hostapd starts:
[Unit]
Description=Add static ip for wireless
Before=hostapd.service
After=network.service
[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/ip addr add 10.0.0.1/24 dev wlan0 brd + dev wlan0
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
However, when I get the following when I look at the logs:
journalctl -u wifi-hostapd.service
Jan 01 01:00:15 routerpi ip[139]: Cannot find device "wlan0"
If I run the service manually after booting it starts correctly and wlan0 is assigned an ip address. I am assuming that I am starting the service at the wrong time.
