Hi,

I have a laptop DELL M90 with an Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG card.

After installed new rpm drivers (see below), my card is recognized and I can see my wireless access point with (iwlist - iwconfig) but it's impossible to connect to it. It seem that I can't obtain an IP address. In the log message I have "dhclient : DHCPDISCOVER on eth1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval )

The same laptop installed in Windows XP connect immediately to my wireless access point. Other Windows XP laptops can connect immediately so.

My laptop is installed with CentOS 5.1 - kernel 2.6.18-53.el5

Do you have any encryption on the access point?
