Description Johannes Engel 2006-05-17 18:58:02 UTC
After installation of openSuSE 10.1 my WLAN connection (intel PRO Wireless 2200, NetworkManager) breaks down every time I try to do the registration. The attempt finishes with a lookup error.
Registration via ethernet is successful.

I can confirm this very behaviour for IPW2100, too. The network repeatedly breaks down when I try to configure the Online Update. After the lookup error and the closure of the respective YaST module, the connection is resumed after a short while without user interaction!

Excalty the same problem here with ipw2200 and only during Online Update configuration, everytime. I have to reopen connection to access point via Networkmanager to restore my wlan network connection.
When plugged with Ethernet, no problem at all. 

The firmware used is the one on the non-oss addon cd.

Please attach /var/log/YaST2 as tarball, the problem is likely caused by YaST.

I have to add, that I was wrong with the resuming of the network connection! Me, too, I have to manually restart it with KNM.

Maybe it contains a lot of useless information (especially y2log-1)...

1.) Please try again. We have changed something on the registration server. Maybe it works now.

2.) If not, please attache also /var/log/messages
