Hello Akemi & Others,
Today I reformated my laptop Dell Precision M90 and installed the Fresh version of CentOs 5.2 and then took all the available update. In that update I got Kernel version update and now I am on Kernel-2.6.18-92.1.10.el5.centos.plus.
I kept a file iwlwifi-3945-1.ucode into the /lib/firmware/
Now after restarting the computer my computer it is giving the following message on the startup. Bringing up interface wmaster : Determining IP information for wmaster .... SIOCSIFLAGS : Operation not supported.
In the network manager it is showing my device i.e Intel Pro 3945 adapter but in the Inactive state. Please give me some suggestion so that I can figure out this problem.
Thanks in advance.

Hello.
Can you please look at my problem ?
In my opinion you have not give us enough information to solve this problem. Are you using wep, wpa, wpa2, wpa_supplicant, *-fwcutter? What module are you loading, anything blacklisted in /etc/modprobe.conf or /etc/modprobe.d/*?
If you are using wpa_supplicant, is it started on boot *before* network? Are your entries in /etc/sysconfig/wpa_supplicant correct?
I kept a file iwlwifi-3945-1.ucode into the /lib/firmware/
What does this mean? With *-fwcutter? Is your driver loaded (lsmod | grep <driver>)?
My /etc/sysconfig/wpa_supplicant: # wlan0 and wifi0 # INTERFACES="-iwlan0 -iwifi0" INTERFACES="-ieth1" # ndiswrapper and prism # DRIVERS="-Dndiswrapper -Dprism" #DRIVERS="-Dndiswrapper" DRIVERS="-Dwext"
My settings on boot for /etc/init.d/wpa_supplicant and /etc/init.d/network: # grep chkconfig /etc/init.d/wpa_supplicant /etc/init.d/network /etc/init.d/wpa_supplicant:# chkconfig: - 9 88 /etc/init.d/network:# chkconfig: 2345 10 90

Ashish,
Sorry for not getting back to you sooner.
As Olaf pointed out, we need more info from you. I understand you now run the centosplus kernel. If the system detected your network device correctly, it should have loaded the iwl3945 driver. Please show us the output of:
/sbin/lspci | egrep -i 'ethernet|network|wireless'
dmesg | grep 3945
/sbin/lsmod | grep 3945

They are all looking good. Hardware detected and the correct driver loaded. With the current firmware in /lib/firmware, all you have to do now, hopefully, is to get NetworkManager working. Please see:

Hello Akemi,
Network manager service is alredy running, but still we are not able to access the wifi network.
