turn airport off for a minute or two.. need to erase routing data there.
wifi adapter should be off as well
 airport comes on first
then the wifi adapter
see that you are connected to the correct SSID the airport.
You may have to reset the airport router via the MAC machine,

and see that you are pulling an ip address,  airports issue a 10.1.1.254 range

ping the gateway
ping a loop 
ping  yahoo.com

open a browser
appears the airport is holding the earlier ip add and arp, mac from fedora10 machine.
 a DNS flush might help

Hi guys,
Ever since I installed F11 I have been unable to get wifi to work. I have an airport router using mac filtering and wpa2 personal encryption. I used these exact same things when running F10 and had no problems with wifi. Doing:

 lsmod  iwl3945               143644  0 
ifconfig wlan0     Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:1F:3C:91:CA:0F  
          UP BROADCAST MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0

          TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)

lspci 03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG [Golan] Network Connection (rev 02)


I have:

kernel.x86_64                           2.6.29.5-191.fc11              @updates 
kernel.x86_64                           2.6.29.6-217.2.3.fc11          @updates 
kernel.x86_64                           2.6.29.6-217.2.8.fc11          @updates 

kernel-devel.x86_64                     2.6.29.5-191.fc11              @updates 
kernel-devel.x86_64                     2.6.29.6-217.2.3.fc11          @updates 
kernel-devel.x86_64                     2.6.29.6-217.2.8.fc11          @updates 

kernel-firmware.noarch                  2.6.29.6-217.2.8.fc11          @updates 
kernel-headers.x86_64                   2.6.29.6-217.2.8.fc11          @updates 

iwl3945-firmware.noarch                 15.32.2.9-1.fc11               installed


wireless-tools-29-4.fc11.x86_64
wireless-tools-devel-29-4.fc11.x86_64

When I try to connect to my network and do a dmesg I get:

iwl3945 0000:03:00.0: firmware: requesting iwlwifi-3945-2.ucode
iwl3945 loaded firmware version 15.32.2.9


At this point I don't know what else to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Gregory
