2nd network card

Hi everybody

I’m working with the QNX RTOS 6.0.
I’ve got a PC104 system with a processor card, on which a network chip is
already installed. This part works very fine and i can see en0 in the
network config.
I added a PCMCIA adapter and i called the driver for this card. All this
still works perfectly. I plugged in a wireless card from AVAYA which is
compatible with the LUCENT product. Now my question is:

How can i mount the wireless LAN card, that i can see on the photon GUI in
the config for networks a 2nd network (as en1 for example). I’m a new user
and tried a couple of combinations. But nothing was successful. Please help
me.
Thanks

Hi,

Do the following

sin ver

see if devp-pccard is running

if it is running do
pin
you should be able to see your pcmcia card.
If not do

devp-pccard
pin
then you should be able to see your pc-card
then
slay io-net
io-net -d -d orinoco -p tcpip
orinococ is the driver for the 802.11b orinococ card

now if you do ifconfig en1
you should be able to see your card.

configure your card:-)

pccard nic - a linksys 10/100 pccard.

( also trouble with a Zoom pccard modem that works under linux,
but that’s another issue, though also an important one )

Yup.

Yup. That’s where I took the base io and irq from.
It’s not the same as Linux, but I don’t really expect
it to be.
( maybe I should be using the same numbers that do work
with linux ? )

If not do

devp-pccard
pin

Using the ne2000 driver, it appears to be there.

configure your card:-)

Now, here’s where I run into trouble.
Get a bunch of no file socket errors, and such.
pinging the ip assigned to the machine returns immediately.
pinging my linux server gets a “host is down” error, BUT…
I never see any traffic indications on the nic led’s.

route commands get socket errors.

I’ll admit that I’m not that good with these sorts of things,
and unfamiliar with the peculiarities of a QNX system.

Hi Urs,

Could you please post the output of ‘pin con’ and ‘pin cis’.

Thanks

Hi,

I have basically the same problems as you do: PC104 + integrated network
card + PCMCIA wireless netwrok card.

Could you please let me know if you managed to get the wireless working ?
