[driverloader] RH9/WMP54G "Error -5 Transmitting Packet"

[Linuxant Support (Jonathan)]

Hi,

the

---
Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06):     Set failed on device eth1 ; 
invalid argument
---

error message is probably because you have set 'Auto' instead of 'Managed' or 
'Ad-Hoc' for the mode with your network configuration tool.

Could you please send at support at linuxant.com the output of 'dumpdiag'? Type 
the following in a root shell:

---
dldrconfig --dumpdiag
---

Just send us the generated file located in /tmp ('driverloaderdiag.txt').
It'll help us solve the problem.

Regards,
